"You did a very nice landing, but a tire explode"!

[Mole]

Overall Flight Result: Horrible

Pilot Bonus points: 80 points
You made a very nice landing. (+50)
You landed at the scheduled airport. (+30)

Pilot's Penalty points: -2224 points
You made a serious pilot error that resulted in a critical problem. (-800)
Landing so roughly that a tire explode is not a good idea. (-300)
You had a serious failure aboard and you forgot to call a mayday. (-350)
Commercial aircraft are not designed for aerobatics, you created excess G-forces. (-400)
You have exceeded the flap speed limit by 37.49kts (-374)

Is it possible to do a very nice landing with a plain and also blow a tire?
Maybe i have to change the settings, it is default setting. Somebody who have the same experience?

well....blow a tire could be one of the failures, in real life, if you didn't change the tire frequent enough, they might blow on landings.
Your never know..... and what's with the serious failure? what failed?

Well...Flaps overspeed
AND
Passenger Opinion: Terror and grief. (0%)
-Were pleased by the music on ground. A very nice addition to their flying experience.
-Were terrified by the excess G-forces. (+3.78 -0.63).
-Didn't like your acrobatic flight (some excess G-forces).
-Didn't like that you forgot the seat belt sign during take-off or landing.
-Were angry because you rolled off the runway upon arrival.
-Were terrified because of the problem during flight.
-Were relieved to land safely after an emergency

I have to practice more

Yes blowing a tire is something that cant be avoided at times. I believe Dan programmed this in as one of the random failures along with
making a hard landing. There is such thing as a defective or worn tire.

exactly Like Jeff said . What is your VSpeed ?

[Mole]

I think it was about -650. Is it possible to set the limit a little bit higher?. I will try to make better landings, but my first flights are not perfect,
so maybe the landings are a little bit too hard. But after a perfect one or two hour flight, it is not so funny if i touch down a little bit to hard
and i get many minus points, if you understand?

[JeffMcBride]

It sounds like your glide path angle may be a bit too steep Mole. Try coming in a little lower if possible and at less of an angle. You should
see an improvement.

What was your sinkrate and gear speed? I also had a tire explosion while my gear speed wast too fast?

[baoding]

i remember i had a tire explode at -450ft/min vSpeed... but now i can normally control it within -300ft/min, and most of the time i get "perfect" as
the end flight mark.

What are you flying? and whats your most used Airport?

[Mole]

Ok. I have to land more carefully I am flying a B-737-800 and i tried out different airports in Europe.

You should be touching down with around 155kts

150kts + 5 for target...

In FS you can probably just go for 140kts
