Hi all,

I thought I'd look at the manchester 24L ils problem.
Took off on 24L in the airbus 321.

I had auto throttle problems on this plane whilst doing the Paris Airshow mission and it reared it's head again, auto throttle coming on, on it's own, now this is happening on 2 pc's, pc running Xp 32 bit and laptop running win 7 64 bit.

Now I'll get to the real point of this thread, on the xp pc, I noticed a lack of scenery, mainly the buildings, thought nothing of it, maybe I'd dropped the settings for the density.

Auto throttle wouldn't turn off so along come MR overspeed, went for the climb to stop it and shutdown the engines and went for the glide into manchester, the atc gave me 06R.

Ok, now manchester was my local airport, flown from/to there more than anywhere else, used to be everyweek.

I had a minor problem seeing the airport:
There were no buildings at the airport, the ground vehicles were there but no buildings at all.

Would a repair install fix this or is there an easier/quicker option?

regards
Steve

PS: Yes I did land it

I can't provide any help on the A321 auto throttle.

Are you using default scenery or add-on scenery for EGCC?

If you're using default, then......

'Scenery complexity' slider must be at Normal or higher to see any buildings. (Control tower, fuel station and some GSE are not effected by the slider.)

The file controlling the default buildings is ...\Scenery\0501\scenery\OBX47130.bgl. File properties are-Size 1,171,621bytes, created Aug 31, 2006, 10:10:04pm. If this file is damaged or missing then nearby airports (EGCD, EGGP) will/may also be missing buildings.

If you have add-on scenery, try disabling or removing it and see if the default buildings appear.

Hi D ave,long time no chat 

I'm guessing it's the file, reason I'm thinking that is that I'm 99% sure I've not made any changes since before last christmas, it just looked wierd with all the support vehicles there and no buildings.

I'll check the settings as well as look at other areas.
I don't use the pc much now, wife bought me a laptop back in February and I tend to use that mainly.

I have absolutely no idea about the scenery problem, but for the A321, it looks like your flight computer detected a risk of stall and triggered the autothrottle to force the pilot to gain altitude again. Most likely, your airplane was too heavy and you went too close from the maximum angle of attack tolerated by the flight computer.
Don't get below 160 knots.
