Hey! When loading Pax tail hits the ground!

[09El_Boissevain]

I have a big proble... I have many payware prop planes... and when I load the pax and am ready to go... I start engines and then suddenly the plane
swings backwards and the tail hits the ground! As if the tail is too heavy! What is this?

It happens with most of my prop planes (Carenado C182II, Beech Bonanza B35, Piper V something...)... Plz help me!

Be aware of you Center of Gravity. If you CG is way off, you plane would do that.

See if there are payload files for your specific planes in the download section, it will fix most if not all of those problems

I remember the Beech 1900C/D being such candidates in real life - they need to put a support under the tail before boarding/unboarding.
The "streched turboprops (Atr72/ Dash 8-400) also are quite delicate in this affair. I wonder if I could duplicate that in FS9 [get's his Beech
out]

Some third party aircraft come with very bad COG setups in the aircraft.cfg file too.

Does sound like a payload problem. I uploaded an accurate one for the Carenado. Can't help you with the others though.

I had that problem when I first loaded the PMDG 747 in FsP. That was until I got the payload model...hehehe! It was funny...while in the VC
view and requested pushback, the nose came up and kept raising up. I knew somethng wasn't right and ended the flight before the tail
hit the ground The payload model sure solved that issue.

I didn't know the PMDG came with an ejection seat *eject eject eject*
