Jumping Airplane

Hi Guys!
I know...The only time I call you is when I NEED somthing..I'm one of those...We all know one of those!

Sup Blaze...
I'd be willing to bet that the aircraft in question was ported over to FS9 from an earlier sim. I've seen it a few times. I can't go into it now, but if memory serves, the problem is in the aircraft.cfg file.

Sounds like a contact points issue.

Please let us know which aircraft it is and which Sim it's for, there might already be a cure out there :-/

Ok..I finally found the plane in question!
It's the "Dreamworks Dash 8 Q-400" With the "Westjet" Textures. "Model by:Tommy Hannson and Flight Dynamics by:John Cillis" For -FS9-.

OK, so it's a native FS9 model after all.

So, I did a little "Googleing" and found this.

The Dreamwings site has either expired or moved, (can't find it anymore), but I'd start by changing the "point.0" contact points as mentioned.

There also seems to be an issue with weight loading. Found this. There you'll find a partially modified aircraft.cfg file. If you have the slow/no takeoff issue, those corrections should be helpful.

I'll see if I can find a link to the model in question, and try it later.

**Is this the one?**

**EDIT**
I just tried the model in the link above. Aside from it being WAY overweight by default, it doesn't seem to suffer the hopping issue. Might be worth the download and try?

That's cool Thanks Groundbound, Yes that's the plane in question, the 54Mb, "Third" one down on the list. Man GB Thanks for going all out in finding a solution to my problem.
I really wish it had a VC cause the panel is a nice one.
