*pop*... they're gone

Postby FridayChild » Sun Dec 03, 2006 11:52 am

This never happened to me before. After landing, I went to lunch without pausing the simulator, leaving my Piper in the GA parking area. When I came back, a Cessna was taxiing towards my plane; it parked beside it and let the engine run for several minutes. Then, all of a sudden, it disappeared.  :o
I'm not really sure why I'm posting this, as it's obviously an unimportant glitch with no ways around; perhaps just for a laugh  ;)

Normal enough for the AI. :)

I know what you mean, we have something like that here and it's called "Tangenziale di Mestre".

That usually happens when there isn't enough parking spaces ;)

In my case though there were plenty. When I landed, I was alone in the GA parking; then came this magic Cessna.  :D

While the Tangenziale di Mestre might be messy, you never found yourself in the one of Napoli nor in the Grande Raccordo Anulare in Roma under the right conditions (conditions that present themselves twice at day on average for both roads), or you would thank your luck you live where you live. ;)

Of course the whole of the A4 "La serenissima!" is in fact una mura di TIR!!!
