Hello,

I was just flying a flight in the B737 and I made the whole flightall the way till the great old landing when ATC gives me direction to descend and has me recieve the glideslope path with about 2 miles out making me come in so high. snd clearly miss the runway.  

Let me refrase I pick up the Glideslopeand all of a sudden it drops and it never gives me the chance to recover and makes me land way high.

Does this happen only to me?

Don't worry, it happens to the best of us. I've also come to believe that this is a bug in the sim.

Try coming into San Francisco (KSFO) from the south at FL300.  They won't even get you close unless you can slow to 200 kts and drop about 3000 fpm.
