b-17 weird

[hode]

Any ideas why avhistorys b-17 starts to roll when i
try to choose it in quick combat menu,no matter i can choose payloads and so on and when i click fly button
it is placed ok on runway.
And if the plane left chosen, and i start CFS3 the whole plane explodes. Weird

At most airfields the B17 is too big to fit in the parking space outside the hangar. The tail hits the hangar and the plane explodes. Besides, the runway won't be long enough to take off if your on a small field.

You must use a 3 runway bomber field for the B17 - someone produced a list and posted at avhistory.

Alconbury in UK is OK - it was a bomber base in WW2.

Theres a fix to sort out the problem of larger 3rd party bombers exploding on the ground when you select them. I cant say I've tried it out on every single airbase, but it seems to work fine so far. Its on the Netwings site, heres a link to the page.
