Injected parked aircraft floating a bit above the ground

Featured Replies

I’m having an issue with injected parked aircraft floating a bit over the ground. Once they start moving, everything is fine.

It’s a bit hard to tell with most aircraft unless I get real up close to them. But for some reason it’s extremely noticeable on Caravans which float a few feet above the ground and Taildraggers which have their tailwheel completely off the ground.

I’ve tried two different base model sets for injection, and two different atc addons for injection. It happens with everything.  Default MSFS models work perfectly fine.  I’ve also tried an empty community folder, and reinstalls of both sets of base models.

Anyone else seeing this currently? I know it was a common bug a while ago, but from everything I see it had been solved.

I have seen this too and agree about tje Caravans. Since I use SayIntentions for injecting all AI traffic both commercial and GA i thought first it was a SI thing, but apparently not then.

Seen i too, happens with both vpilot on Vatsim and SI.

What are you using to inject them?

It happens using both SI and BATC.

well I know with SI, injected aircraft height is based off what navigraph data's says the airport elevation is, so if the scenery you're using is is not perfectly aligned with that data, aircraft will appear to be floating.

I don't know how BATC or Vpilot/VATSIM do it. But I don't recall ever seeing floating aircraft on BATC, and I don't use VATSIM

Interesting.

I'm using a large majority of just default scenery.

I'm also fairly certain that it's worse and more noticeable at arrival airports than at departure airports.  Very strange.  A couple more pics from last night below.

I guess it is a known bug though currently.  It's been logged as such on the official forums since the sim released.  Obviously still not fixed.
