747 gear problem

Featured Replies

anyone else have the problem with landing gear on the 747 when it is retracted it is coming through the wings.

Wow!  How hard did you land then? 😄

Not seen this up to now.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

I will have to look for this then the next time.

It is possible most people dont notice it as you dont really look at the top of the wings when retracting the gear, so you might have spotted a new anomoly! 🙂

I will fly it and check tomorrow. 👍

Wow that was a slammer - he nearly shook his flaps off!  That nearly qualifies as a 'controlled flight into terrain'!  😄

I saw it. There were some other issue with the wing as well, but you need to zoom out to see it.

I'm scheduled to fly the Queen from Gatwick to Rostock tomorrow morning - early, with a full load.

Will check out the Gear Animations carefully and see what's up.

Bobcat, and others - if you're heavy, you can "park" the Queen on to the tarmac with reasonable force - don't be bashful.

Get it on the ground - or your Runway rapidly disappears behind you - it's not like a floaty, floaty situation that you get with smaller stuff;

747 ? - get it on the ground. Positively.

A load of 747-8i Improvements hailed this latest Update; let's see if they've overlooked some fundamentals (like Gear Animations)

Will report back mid-morning.

Night Night.

(Those of us who love the Queen - we'll get this right.)
