OK, So I was just happy flying along, playing fs passenger (demo version!). I was flying from San Francisco to Sacramento. When all of a sudden, my passengers are all freaking out because we where flying over a ‘WAR ZONE’… aahhh HUH!!! Now im not from America, no where near it in-fact, and somehow I missed the fact that there is a war going on within the strip of land between San Fran and Sacramento!!
Anyways, before I knew it all the guns and bullets starting goin off on the sound, and all of a sudden the co-pilot is saying. We have lost our engine, we have lost our electrical equipment, our hydraulics are broken. Basically within like 2 min, my plane was f@#ked, everything was stuffed. Luckily I was near some town, cant remem what it was now, and so I tried to land at its airport, but having nothing to guide me, I lost my bearings of everything! However, there was like some farm land near by, and somehow I managed to land it smoothly. Hearing the clapping of the passengers when I landed was funny as.
Now that was a random flight! But was cool too hear the mayday call, and I was pretty proud of my landing.. was better then most runway landings I try!!
Well, just thought id share this story with you, and too see if anyone could tell me, how and why I ended up in a war zone in America??!!?!?! |

First of all buy a full version of FSPassanger. It's a really useful and cool add-on.
Second thing you can change your war zones in the FSP settings.
My guess for your american war is that when you play the demo version everything is turned on sou you get to experience all the good and bad sides of FSP.  |

You won't regret it! It's great, I've been using it for 2 years and have no complaints what so ever.  |

There are several things that are classed as a war zone such as flying over the white house etc will get you shot down. My American geography is poor so I can't tell you what area you flew over. |

Perhaps there is a large military base in that area? It's certainly not near the White House, Pentagon or anything like that. You can't spell "manslaughter" without "laughter" |

In case if you didn't know, the nearest major airfield is Travis Air Force Base, 17nm north of the war zone airport. You can make an emergency landing over there. I use that airport to escape for the warzone airfield. Depending of what kind of aircraft you're flying, it's possible you can make it. If you're flying a jetliner, you can make it but if you're flying a Skyhawk, it's not likely because there's a good chance that you're prop engine will get hit. Love the Airbus A380. It's huge! |

I flown from San Fran to Sacramento many times, sometimes I get War Risk zone......................I never thought you would get shot!!! Cool FSpassengers! We have reached our cruising altitude,I am going to switch the seat belt sign off. Feel free to move about as you wish, but please stay inside the plane till we land ... it's a bit cold outside, and if you walk on the wings it affects the flight pattern. |

I did a flight from KSFO to KCCR, but before I can land(I was doing a 360 turn to lose alt), I got shot! With one engine still working, I hanged in the sky to KOAK(IATA: OAK) and landed in a flat area in the airport! We have reached our cruising altitude,I am going to switch the seat belt sign off. Feel free to move about as you wish, but please stay inside the plane till we land ... it's a bit cold outside, and if you walk on the wings it affects the flight pattern. |
