• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Couple of issues

Does anyone else find they have to click on a menu option twice, eg the menu while flying, to make it do what you want. Sometimes it works, other times you have to click twice. Quite annoying if on approach and you need a hand on the throttle and the other on the stick while trying to close the menu with the mouse!

Also, tonight while flying the 747 I was fine for half an hour and then without pressing any buttons as far as I am aware, my throttle inputs were ignored and the engines could not be spooled down. I check the assists and AI flying the plane was turned off. So I couldn't land - it was not slowing down below 400 knots since the engines were nearly at full thrust.

Perhaps it's a feature and I've missed something.......somewhere.

Maybe Active pause was on? everything runs accept your motion. So sounds etc. are all going. including the world around you. Maybe you accidentally hit that momentarily? I was going to recommend active pause for helping you out in those moments.

Hi Rick,

Active pause was definitely not on, but I should use that when it happens again rather than fumbling around and eventually crashing!
