8 passengers killed and 12 injured on the taxiway at 12 with a speed of 12 kt ??

[lkn]

Hello,

i crash to a building on the taxiway with a speed of 12 kt,just the left wing of the VC10 hit the building !!!
How is it possible with this speed to kill 8 passengers with the seat belt on ?!!
it's incredible,what do you think about that,it's a big dammage for my compagnie,i lost my credibility !!!
Can i reset this flight,because for me FSP made a mystake,8 pax killed and 12 injured,it's enormous with this speed !!!
that say "you hit the ground with an impact speed of -258ft/mn..." absolutly not,i made a kiss and the landing was without any problem,it's
only a crash when the left wing hit a building on the taxi way near to the gates !!!
thanks to explain me what is going wrong,what can i do to reset this flight,because it's now recorded,that's seem absolutly unreal !!

I agree with you there is A LOT for Dan to fix, but i still LOVE FSP!!!!

ummm....it was not FSP that did a mistake but - I'm sorry to say - YOU or the designer of the scenery

If you hit an obstacle with a wing it may rupture the fuel tanks for example. The fire starts, you evacuate the paxes and a few just don't
make it.......Btw...the crash model is not designed by Dan (if I'm not greatly mistaking). Enable crashes in FS9 , hit shift+z TWICE and crash into somthing while you taxi. If you watch the Vspeed on screen you will see that it peaks when the crash is detected by fs9
For the problem of hitting something in the first place:

There is either TWO versions of the same airport loaded or the priority of the airport scenery is not correct. In that case you may encounter
misplaced objects or even can crash into invisible ones. Another possibility is that you took a taxiway on which your type of aircraft was not
allowed (as there may be obstacles on the real airport, which the designer reproduced. You need to check airport & taxi-charts for this
reason. Some taxiways are just not wide enough whereas others can't support the weight of the aircraft. The last possibility is that there is
an error in the scenery. When you program an addon scenery, you will have to either disable or replace the default objects (especially
dynamic scenery) of this part of the fs world. Sometimes one item slips and that's when trees grow out of the taxiway (I designed one
apron and when testing it I had the sensation of visiting a botanic garden )

Don't hit anymore buildings...problem solved

[pdjpeter]

i suppose if the wing fuel tanks ignigted it could send the whole thing up

you right Cartsen,the VC10 is not appropriated for the taxiway on KBUR (Burbank California),i made a big mystake to land on this one,but
do you think it's possible to kill 8 pax and 12 injured with a speed of 12 kt with the seat belt on ?
For my opinion i don't think so...???

Lol you were going at 21.6 mph, maybe that was fast enough. am I correct 12 x 1.8 = 21.6. Or is that the wrong calculation/formula?

Well, to hit a building with 12 knots. I think that is quite a bump. And as the fuel is inside the wing, if it is damaged enough, a fire may ignite.

Fuel + sparks = fire.

sorry guys all these what if's are crap, what if im tryin to emrgency land in northern canada in a 777 and i happen to land on a lake that is thick
enough with ice to hold me, considering ice in northern canada can get 30 ft. thick, therefore they all survive.

[Ceemosp]

considering ice in northern canada can get 30 ft. thick, therefore they all

die...as unfortunately you spin and hit the only rock inthe whole lake and break the plane up....

Simple rule is: Don't hit anything with any part of the aircraft. PERIOD

[lkn]

yes,you all right,don't hit anything with any part of aircraft,that's the first rule to be safe !!!
ok i accept the sentence ! i killed tonight 8 pax !!!
Hope never in my real flights !!!!
Every time be aware !!!
Good dance in the sky...

You then need to get engineers out to fix the aircraft (Including spares), and then to get it back in the air before the ice melts
