Does this happen to you?

Postby Bijan77 » Sun Feb 29, 2004 7:44 pm

When on approach into an airport with low visibility reported you can see the runway through the layer and clouds or haze (wutever it may be) then once you decend into it the runway will finnaly dissappear. is this just a glitch, or is it somethin on my settings? I use this for realworld practice and it would be nice to have the runway just not show until you would really be able to see it. thanks

I think its just the way they did the game. the thing that I do id set a overcast stratus layer of clouds right on or below the visiblety line. that Way when you are flying all you will see is the clouds on top.
The thing is, you are still a live when they start to eat you.
