The tire blowing issue is a hard debated topic on these forums
And it has this forum divided in half ...with people that want to see this adressed in the next patch , and people
that are firmly against it.
I place my self in the first half.
Not that i blow that many tires...but when it happens its mostly in vintage aircraft.
I love to fly these old planes ..and use em in FSPX....but the paperthin rubbers under the planes have me
restricted to flying planes with a half decent autopilot.
There would be no harm to the integrety of the game should the option exist to disable this...
Yet flightsimmers tend to be a bit elitist when it comes to cutting corners.
Still they use time acceleration on the longer flights .... and i havent seen a modern plane with that option
My view is that MS FS and FSPX is a game...and most games should have an easy mode too.
And if you are a keyboard or mouse pilot ....landing a plane can be a real pain.
Blowing a tire only adds to the frustration.
Still i cant say to wich camp Dan belongs ....most ppl against it are long time fliers with a serious rep.
For now all i can give as advice is practice , practice and practice.

Every landing is nothing more than a controlled collision with a planet.
