How do you fix problem of wheels sinking into runways and taxiways? ???


Hi jo....is this ALL aircraft and all runways?..you ought to say more about your problem...if it is just one aircraft then the aircraft.cfg contact points might need tweaking..this is the part that concerns your problem by the looks of it...maybe paste that section here and somebody will have a look for you...if it is ALL aircraft then sorry I have no idea unless you have just installed new terrain maybe..commoner ;)

If this is just one airplane and it does it any where you go, then you need to adjust the contact points in the aircraft cfg file. If you have a simalar plane in your fleet try using those contact points. If you search these post on that subject you should find out which ones you need to adjust.
If all airplanes do this at one loaction then the airport has a elevation error in it. You can change the elevation with AFCAD. 8)

I was taxing on a default runway with an addon bonanza aeroplane and was sinking into and out of holes all along the taxiway and runway. sme sections you go along fine and other sections you sink half the aircraft into the ground then it will pop up onto level ground again
