Hi dyfly,

There are probably quite a few reasons, here are a couple of quick questions that may help us figure it out :

1) Is it just one airport this happens at?

if so.....

2) Does said airport have HEAVY parking/gates?

Cheers,

Carl

is this a flyable aircraft that you converted to AI?

You should be able to use an AI FM and swap the contact points, lights and title information and have it work fine.

I read in another post and have observed it myself that after FS9 runs for a while the troublesome AI get it together and start to land. UT's FLT#0319, B772 Thai airways from Bangkok was doing this at Kathmandu. After the sim had run for about ten minutes, the Thai heavy landed and taxied to parking.

Well that's mighty thoughtful of you to come back and post a thank you. I don't make this stuff up; i learn from others and just pass it on; hopefully i'll follow your example and take time to thank others who have shared so much with me to make my simflying experience more enjoyable.
