Flight plan ....Klas to klax
Addons..gsx,mega scenery las Vegas, fsdt Klas, fsdt klax, traffic x and Rex.
Aircraft....default 737 ( easy on fps when arriving at klax).
Started out having good time at the gate using GTX. Such a cool program that just sets the mood right. Anyhow, taxi, hold short of 7L and enjoy a couple ai landing and clearance is given to me so away I go. Once in rout I set AP and get myself a drink and look forward to a decent into LA during sunset. Fsx had other ideas in mind. Came back with drink to find I have lost my engines and aircraft ready to stall. No power! Try to restart using the panel but no go so hit the Ctrl-e and nothing...try reloading aircraft.....fsx freezes.........thinking.......NO......Don't you dare.....ahhhhh ...fsx has encountered a fatal error!!!!:tgun2:. After that, lost my interest and shut it down.
Funny how this program gives such joy at times then at time you want to take a brick and ....well you know what. Took a few screen shots before thing went bad. Will post tomorrow.

Just sharing to make me feel better

It sure is nice when things run smoothly.


I remember back in my online virtual airlines fun, before full time developing, doing a flight in a 747 from Boston to Heathrow England, and the program would crash after many hours of flight time, VATSIM air traffic control, etc... All those hours down the drain. :(
