It's bothered by that hideously ugly thing that you are flying.... ;D

Seems like a glitch somewhere with the textures.  What are your spec's?

What driver set are you using Page? And in FS what check boxes do you have checked in the graphics settings?

Aw, c'mon guys - some of us like to fly the humungous jets! Lots of skill in flying big jets ...

Great Airbus BTW; I fly the same one. Landed it at Kathmandu recently on my way to the top of Everest.

Square sea textures: FS 'looks ahead' to see what the next textures are in order to load them. The squares represent how far ahead it's looking, and I think this is based on processor speed and memory capacity.

Page, a silly Q. for you, but are you using slew mode at all? Or are you flying with time compression on?

no its your computer not being able to cope loading all the textures at once....the texturing system in fs uses huge sqaures and loads them once u come near them....normaly so far in the distance its hard to see but its lagging quite a lot there. maybe update graphics drivers or something
