San Diego crash right before touchdown
Author: Dwaffler      8 Posts  Status: Young recruit Date    10-26-10 06:57

I don't know if this has happened to anybody else,. but it's happened to me three times now.

I'm making the approach into San Diego Rwy 27, and at about half mile from the airport, I get a building crash. On this last approach, I was actually
above the glideslope, hoping I wouldn't hit the building, and I did. I'm using the default scenery, with a custom AFCAD for KSAN.

Really a pain in the behind, since I enjoy a nice approach into San Diego, where I lived for 12 years in the Navy, and have flown into that airport on
many occasions in real life.

Any ideas????

When you say "custom AFCAD" did you do it? Or did you down load it? My guess would be the afcad. I am very good at doing afcads and
have been doing them for years, but I somehow managed (or it managed on its own, still a mystery) to do something where I would crash
about 100' up from landing at KBOS 33L (the afcad I had done).

It's pretty simple to check, delete it and try again. Hopefully none of the default bgl's were messed with and you will at least have your
source of your mysery.

It was one that I downloaded, but it doesn't add any scenery, it just adds gates the the Default scenery. Guess I'll have to rename it, use the
default AFCAD to see if it has something to do with this building at the end of the runway or not.

This is definitely not a FsP related issue. More like an AFCAD situation already discussed. Moving thread to FS9 General. If it isn't FS9, let me know.

If you want. And if it is FSX. Send me the AFCAD file. And i can tell you if there are any problems.

Are theses crashes happening a night. Some times Default buildings fade out and dissapear at night. Its some problem with them being
converted from FS9 to FSX. So the building is still there, you just cant see it.

Think I may have found it, I noticed on the AFCAD that there was an apron just about where that building was, like they were flattening the building
for a helo pad. I'll test it tonight and let you all know, but I'm betting that's the problem
