I think the experts here need to know your system specs before anyone can give you a sensible answer; - particularly your graphics card type. This looks like a graphics card driver problem to me.

I have exactly the same issues here.Beside the above issues, i think the 747 is suppose to be with flexible wings - wing tip vortice are currently drawn about 3 feet above the wing tip(static) position. This is where a flex wing would be (more or less). So the problem is either flexible wings are not working (but we eventually see ones after a couple of minutes running) or the wingtip vortice are drawn at the wrong place.System is P4 2.60 with 1G Ram. NVIDIA GeForce FX 5600 (updated driver from yesterday) + updated DirectX (december 2006 update).FSX is the french version and SP1 has been applied.Update:I forgot to say... The texture of the aircraft (747) is really of bad quality even if i set the aircraft parms to the maximum. It is has if it is loading with the wrong LOD.

Here are some pics showing the issues.Bug 1 is showing the texture issue during daylight. There's no problem at night (and evening). Please notice that the Bombardier CRJ has the same texture issue (not only the 747). Tires from AI airport trucks are also white and taxiway signs.Bug 2 is showing a strange behavior where the lights of surrounding AI CRJs will also be turned on when i open the lights on the 747.Bug 3 is showing smoke out of the tires while taxiing at 10mph (yes the brakes were released ;-) )

Ok, now these are pics about the flex wings not so flexible. All moving parts are flexible beside the wing itself. Very poor quality control to end up with such mess.Or we'll call it the first 747 biplane ;-)

Any body with similar problem or a solution for it ?

Hey thanks for the infos, i will surely take a good look at it.

Hey Ron, that was the solution for all the previously mentionned issues. Thanks a lot..However, doing so my fps went from almost 20 to 2 or 3 , so there's still some work to do.Thanks alot, happy new year
