The last 3 days I have made 5 flights with my DA's Fokker 100/70 and I haven't blown a tyre yet. Same goes for the PMDG MD11.

The Jus tFlight 737 classic series is just so darn crude lol, it's a b**ch to land it

Hi All

I'm new with this Add-on ( i play fs since fs98 ) i considered myself a good pilot, but when i try landing with a Mooney Bravo... a huge
surprise, in 4 in a row landing, 4 in a row tire blow, lol. i reallyce i doing touchdown with a high vertical speed, so i start to do a a landing
with less v speed... and was a good idea, since i do that i dont have any tireblow.... some landings are about 400-300 fpm, but the mayor
part are 250-100



here is the paste of my best landing.

my question are... maybe sound like a rookie question... what mean the landing pitch angle??

cheers

Landing pithc angle is how high your nose is pointing when your main gear touch the ground.

so this Landing Pitch: -1.08°
mean i touchdown with the nose gear?? or i'm wrong??? maybe yes.... but that is a issue i never understood well...

ps: sorry for my english... i'm a mexican sim pilot

There are some runways in flight sim where the landing pitch will be registered as a negative value due to the way the terrain has been modelled, but
I'm not sure which ones they are - I am just aware of their existance.

maybe... i will try some kiss landings to the see the data of the pitch angle.

thanks a lot

After making 15 flights with FsPX, I've had one landing at -166 ft/min that resulted in a tire blowing out on the default 737. EOF report
indicated there was low tire pressure prior to takeoff, so that resulted in a blown tire. I used the CLS A330-200 yesterday and had another
very smooth landing at -100 ft/min and no blown tire. I have my company set easy to hard failures at 6%. Next time I'll try a firmer landing
and see if I get a blown tire. But, it's hard to do a firmer landing since I strive for the softest landings possible

Try touch n gos as practice , pull a big wheelie all the way down the rway with the stall horn blaring ( but not stalled!!!), keeping rear wheel
firmly attached to ground , and making sure front wheel doesn't impact the tarmac (making sure you keep aircraft centered on rway).
Teaches good control, and gives an opportunity for pattern practice. not all that exciting i know but its a stepping stone to better landings.

Was that before or after you got your hostesses to drug the inflight meals
