I down loaded this air craft from the following link http://simviation.com/1/download-file?f ... leId=46507
This has got to be the worst aircraft I have ever downloaded. It does not handle on ground very well it is hard to get it to turn.
Than I can not figure out how to engage the auto pilot every time I try it shuts off by itself. And trying to fly it manually is just about a impossible task.
it is slow to respond to any controls trying to make a turn in this aircraft would be like trying to turn the Washington monument by hand
Now I realize that the aircraft found here are in no way tested by anyone and it is what I describe as a pig in a poke method.
I have to admit this is the first time I have ever had a problem of this nature with a project open sky aircraft.
I think the biggest problem here is in the weight and balance section I have not looked at them as of yet cause I do not have anything to compare to.
Can anyone tell me where I can find a good B777 aircraft that has its own panel

easiest thing would be to copy and past the aircraft.cfg section below the [General] on .. from one that does work OK.


I have tried several Skyspirit/ Posky 777's (many) and have never had this problem. I must have tried about 20 of the Chris Evans updates as occasionally there have been reported problems that required fixing.

Also if that doesn't work you could replace the air file with one from an aircraft that does work. (remember to change the 'sim=********'to the name of the air file)

Thanks Pete I knew you could do as you stated but at the time I did not have another B777 that I could copy from I have down loaded another one of
Chris Evans B777 and will see if I have better luck with it.
But I hate to have to alter aircraft but that is what you get with some freeware.

I just tested this arcraft on my system.
no problems found
auto pilot works
ground steering normal
normal flying in manual and auto pilot

did you switch on the hydrolics ?

Probably missed that one That is something I am not used to doing.
I do have the made freeware version of the Ready for Push Back B747-200 for FS9 and you have to do that as well as a lot of other things you do not normally have to do. You can not use Control E to start engines on this aircraft it will not work.
When I tried to steer this beast it just slid across the ground side ways.
I will give it one more try.
