Papa Mark Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Last night I was flying the stock Barron, flying into Bowling Green KY. It was a nice flight, and I was set up perfectly flaps down dead on the ILS when I thought I was developing problems with my engines. The gauges were all good, but there was a definite change in engine sound. I did another gauge scan when out my port window what do I see, but a King Air no more than five feet off my wingtip! No kidding, I was so wrapped up in the sim that I told myself that someone was going to get an ass whooping. The whole go around thing was good, but I was still upset enough to turn what was a textbook landing into a "Chase the ILS" landing. Never thought I got as wrapped up into FS as I guess I do. Now I'm laughing about how I literally got road rage while simming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrussell Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 When I first started simming I had problems with the jets passing over or under my aircraft on approach. Turns out that I was starting the approach too far from the airport at too slow speed.

Rupert Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Did you get a landing clearance? Was your radio on? Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Mark Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 I was under air traffic control, and had clearance. I've been using FS for . . . well I guess since 2.0 came out, and this was the first time something like this ever happened. I was more entertained by how upset I got. The wife thought it was funny as all get out that I was yelling at my computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Just wait for the treats in store for you if you try a major city airport like KLAX or KJFK and try to land a small prop plane and being chased by the biggies. They have no mercy. It may be time to check out AISmooth. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
