August 6Aug 6 A strange occurrence this evening. Wandering around the skies minding my own business when the electrics went off. No lights, no avionics. But the engine was purring away happily without a care in the world.I started digging around turning switches on and off, checked the failures, nothing. All good. I'd best land I thought. I decided on Gatwick as I thought it give all the tubistas a laugh.Lowered the gear. Wha ! Of course, no electricery = No gear and no flaps. Executed a textbook wheels up landing. Nobody was hurt.I thought I heard sniggering from the parking slots. The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

August 6Aug 6 Beta? No. I've got enough trouble as it is. I don't go looking for it. 😂 I reloaded the flight and all returned to normal. 😕 The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA
August 6Aug 6 Just had another faultless flight. I know I was less than overwhelmed by it in the beginning. (A reaction to out-of-box hyper-enthusiasm) But the more I fly it the more I like it. I will actually get my moneys worth out of it. 😃 The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

August 6Aug 6 Did you try the back up alternator?I’ve heard it mentioned on the promotional videos but don’t know much about it . 787 captain. Previously 24 years on 747-400.Technical advisor on PMDG 747 legacy versions QOTS 1 , FS9 and Aerowinx PS1.
August 6Aug 6 Failures were my first port of call. Clean. I wasn't aware of a backup alternator. I thought I dredged through everything. Nothing jumped out at me. The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

August 7Aug 7 Of course. It's not a backup alternator though......Is it? The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

Don't know which one you were flying. You know what you say after a belly landing? "That'll buff out" Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
