I started a flight today from san francisco to Chicago Midway airport, Took off at 9am.



ATC got me upto 35000ft, was in cruise.. 2 hours from reaching Midway, Some strange things start happening inside the flightdeck, Suddenly engines cut out, FSpassengers had made my plane have a engine fire.

i have my accident settings on 5% on FSP, meaning i have a 5% of getting into a accident, This flight was that 5%.

hydraulics had also broke meaning i had no control, and with engine fire was unable to fly the plane correctly, Plane crashed in the desert.

Sad

Very realistic looking pic Morris.

I'd have jumped out of the cockpit and swum to the shore Razz

thats a bad flight, saaaaaaaaaaaad for the virtual passengers. Crying or Very sad


there was a flight called United Flight 232 where the hydraulics broke and by the different engine thrust, it was able to crash land at a airport and caused over 50% of the people to live. In virtual flight 921 here, with engine fire its not possible. I have gone through many emergency with fsp, but not when the plane is out of control.

Very nice shot.
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.

It doesn't look like PMDG, its POSKY i think(pmdg's 737 doesn't have wing flex).
