dont sink

Post by American398 »

hey guys, im new to the project airbus planes here and they seem like a pretty good model, good on the frames also which is important to me. One question i had regarding the A320-200 is that when ever I am landing I get the "Dont Sink" warning sound that goes off, even when i am coming in at around 160kts, is there a way to fix this?

Make sure your flaps are fully down and you hold a correct pitch-up degree (eg 3 degrees). If your approach speed is about 160kts, you'd be coming in too fast unless you had your flaps up. Press F7 to lower flaps.

ya flaps are fully down and i cant seem to come in to much slower because than the nose is too high.

just the fault FSX A321 panel, but i took that sound out of the FSX sound folder because, i really didn't know what to do, i would just lower the nose ever so slightly and it would repeat over and over.

I have the same problem but would like something like "check landing configuration" instead of that annoying. I just think instead of sink :)

Hi Majid,

for all the FSX users here to help you with your problem, you need to explain what your problem is exactly with the landing. Can you describe it as best you can? even if its broken english it's ok.. try

Hi tranceaddict
I hear don't sink warning during approach (specially final approaches) and I know every thing is OK ,flaps are fully down and air speed is true for landing.

even if your flaps are down and you are at the correct airspeed, are you below the glideslope?

dear Tranceaddict
I'm sure every thing is OK flaps and airspeed are set, glideslope is captured correctly.
