May 24, 20215 yr I didn't think MSFS would even allow it, but tonight I made a belly landing in the Longitude. I was surprised. So a bit later, I tried it again at another field, same aircraft. Crash! Very odd.
May 24, 20215 yr Generally you slide in if you are in dev mode or have crashes disabled but go to a black screen and crash if detection is enabled. The P149 did originally have a feature where it let you slide in and you bent the prop but they seemed to have disabled that for some reason.
May 24, 20215 yr The Bonanza would let you do it at least back in December. I learned by experience. Someone modeled a great metal screeching/scraping sound too. AMD 3950X | 64GB RAM | AMD 5700XT | CH Fighterstick / Pro Throttle / Pro Pedals
May 24, 20215 yr I did an unintended belly landing in the CRJ a few weeks ago (forgot to lower the gear). No idea what my settings were but it worked, i.e. no crash. i9-11900K, RTX 4090, 32 GB ram, Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo, TCA Airbus sidestick and quadrant, Reverb G2
May 24, 20215 yr Author Hmm, tried again this AM at KSFO and was able to scrape it in. I guess if you land smooth enough...

I guess if you land smooth enough... yep its all down to the vertical speed on landing even with crash detection on.... once you have landed like that then you get to throw the keys at the airport maintenence team and say.. fix her up, I'll be back tomorrow 🙂 Graham System specs...

May 24, 20215 yr It's my primary mode of landing. If only I could practice the gear up take-off now I would have the full set! 😀 I was surprised by the Piaggio actually (still enjoying it) I pan-caked it down on the grass (simulating an engine failure) and was surprised to survive it without a black screen, and see the bent prop!

May 24, 20215 yr I play with failures enabled and had a electric systems failure in the tbm a few miles form my destination in the Mexican mountains. This means: no instruments, apart from the compass in the middle, no gear down or flaps down possible, no atc. I found my destination visually somehow and circled it while having fragile cargo by Onair in the back. I came in way too fast since I could not see how fast I was and didn't want to risk stalling in the high altitude and without flaps. Crashes were enabled of course and I overshot the runway and went into some trees, which luckily didn't trigger a crash. And all that in VR. So yeah.... belly landings are totally possible.
May 24, 20215 yr The recent payware Skyhawk which I reviewed here, can make a belly landing on its drop tanks, which is something the real aeroplane was designed to do. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here

Hit the Y key, then F4 a few times then Y again and go. 🙂 RIG#1 - I9 14900K MSI Pro z790 RTX 5070Ti 40" 4K Monitor 3840x2160
June 12, 20214 yr Author I've done a few since posting this, not all intentional. I just landed in the longitude with the gear up...oops!
