So I fooled around with default a/c that would load up fine at terminal E. Give 'em a little gas though and they would "crash" into the terminal many feet before the physical building in the sim. This explains why the 777 was loading into a crashed airplane - since it's so much bigger, it had already reached this invisible wall. Turned off all crashes and it loads up just fine. I'm willing to fidget with the AFCAD to fix this but I'm not even sure where to begin. Not pressing though since turning all crashes off seems to solve the problem.

Totally understand - I think I had the same setting in FSX and for sure in P3D I disable some of the crashes so that when UT2 or the addon airports go a little crazy with the airplanes and ground vehicles, I'm not penalized for it. It is a thought though - I'll have to disable all crashes and then attempt to load the 777 in the same situation, see what condition it loads into.

I've only done some troubleshooting with this but was curious if anyone else has encountered this problem. Essentially, when trying to load a 777 flight at default ATL in P3D, using one of DL's gates on the E terminal, the sim loads with the 777 crashed because the landing gear is up (and so subsequently loads up the default flight). Now, I've reviewed the CTDs (this isn't one) and the landing gear up / dark cockpit issues and this seems to be different. The 777 loads and operates normally everywhere I've flown it thus far - stock airports and addons alike. And it will load normally at other ATL parking spots. I've loaded the default F22 at the same gate(s) without issue which is why I started here rather than the P3D forum. If this is a unique issue to me then I'll keep on troubleshooting but was checking first to see if I wasn't alone. Andy Mack
