KChapman Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Positive rate means climbing, negative rate means descending. A positive landing rate isn’t possible unless the runway slopes upward a pretty fair bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJ_simpilot Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Ah, I may be blind, deaf and perhaps dumb, but that is a negative integer, yo. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

KChapman Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Ah, I may be blind, deaf and perhaps dumb, but that is a negative integer, yo. Yeah, I was mistakenly responding to the idea that the passengers ‘thought we never landed’ as a misunderstanding that a negative integer meant climbing. In retrospect, the responses above were celebrating a landing the passengers could barely feel while I was getting off-target pedantic. Oh, whiskey... Nice landing, congrats!

CRJ_simpilot Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 So is that the so-called, "FS Passengers" I've heard about? How is it rating that? I mean, with such a shallow decent it's like there was no GS interception. FS Passengers sounds like a great App, but I don't need constant gold medals since I already fly pretty well for the most part. LMAO! :D I mean, I've flown for so long and know how to operate my FS machine in a proficient matter (no idea about real life). If you're following SID and STARS then a rating on descent is a moot point if you ask me. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E.

KChapman Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) I think it’s measuring the rate of descent at the exact moment you touch down on the runway and gives you the -fpm and a descriptive rating. EDITED Send button hit too soon. I get what you mean about it judging your profile if you’re flying SIDs and STARs. Curious to see what else it judges - bank angle, rate of climb, turbulence, etc. Edited September 24, 2018 by KChapman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRJ_simpilot Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 A rating on turbulence would kinda of suck since that's out of your control. But then again, I've head that if you do have a lot of turbulence you should slow down. I do this on some occasions. In fact, I had to slow down while flying into hurricane Florence. OOM errors?
