My friend is flying the 777 right now. He noticed something strange.

 

Basically, It's like there's an invisible 'Pole" coming down from the planes belly, that's "scratching" and invisible "wet floor", that's is creating a vapor trail, similar to the ones the gear struts does when rolling on a wet runway. His only add-on is Opus Weather Engine and Rex for textures.

 

 

 

Best Regards.

That's an FSX bug, most likely he took off in the rain. When that happens the rain effect stays with you throughout the flight, even when things clear up.

Hmm, that's good to hear. I wasn't sure myself cause I've never seen this before. Indeed he took of during rain. Thanks.

Is that why sometimes I have a trail of smoke as if I crashed the plane?  Friggin rain?!?  I've never seen that pole thing though.  

hey jefferson any ideas whast going on with the whole download thing, i am assuming u have been waiting as ong as me for this thing now? i cant understand why some people have it and others dont?????

It's just as well. The last time I jumped out of my plane to get an external view, things didn't turn out so well. I never considered how hard it would be to get back in.

Maybe it's a paying with credit card vs paypal funds thing?  No idea as I haven't purchased yet.  I'm at work right now...eeerm...working...

Yeah, I paid with paypal, but up to now, only the paypal invoice was sent, but no pmdg confirmation e-mail. I don't know why, really. Maybe bad luck, maybe I should've waited until the site frenzy calmed down.

Well, despite having paid with paypal, it's actually linked to my C/C, so it's supposed to be instantaneous. I only do it actually to save time from filling up those billing info every time, but now I'm kinda regreting it, hehe.

 

Cheers.

I paid with PayPal funds...no issues except for the 3 hour download time.

FSX issue.  It's a stuck water/snow effect.  Google it.  It's well known.
