weird incident at the gate ,ever happened to anyone yet?

[dave92270]

Strange thing happened to me today - I just made EHAM-EDDF in 737PIC, and after uneventful smooth trip (no G's, no "dangerous
maneuvers" etc. as in the report below) and decent landing I got to the gate where I started to unload passengers. With about 2 minutes
of unboarding left and some passengers still onboard the aircaft suddenly sort of jumped a little (I was at the spot view at the moment
so I saw it) , and then the attendants were yelling somethign about door being opened in-flight and need of emergency, also I heard the
ambulance sound right away (as if you make an emergency landing)...but there was nothing what could've caused that, and I had
parking brakes on off course set too. Anyway, this is what I got, isn't it very strange?

Yes, it's strange that people still don't know how to use the FAQ

Thanks Dutch64 for pointing me to the right direction; really appreciate - I found the explanation there down in the Problems, 'Bugs'
section, great. I didn't expect to find this in the FAQ - luckily there are knowledgable people around.

That's why you end the flight as soon as they start to disembark. There really is no need to wait until they are all off.

I've had this while using the "CTRL-W" function to check out other aircraft in the area. Something to do with the FS 2004 layering system I think.
It can pick up and drop your aircraft while its out of view and thus this causes the crash of sorts. Had it happen to me after a 14 hour trip, god
was I mad!

[Joeflyer]

Good rule of thumb is to never do an outside view after landing...only after you have ended the FsP flight...as stated earlier

[poden]

I think the tendency to "hop" is dependent on the aircraft. If your plane doesn't do it, its generally pretty safe to change views after landing. I
do it all the time without trouble.

weird i usually i switch views after ive landed to check out some of the aiport or look at my questionable parking job.
after 50 odd flights ive never experienced it once.
but i think next time all stay in the aircraft after ive landed, just in case.

[Dutch64]

It depends also on the plane, that's why some don't experience this behavior. Something to do with contact points which are a bit off

[ivoryjedi]

And it depends on the scenery too I think. I was at YVR with custom scenery layered over top the default. I was looking at planes at default
airports within the radius of my plane and I think by switching layers like that, it started bouncing my plane around. I've had it before with other
aircraft and custom airport scenery. Not that I can recall with default scenery. Or maybe its something else?
