i heard the patch was done and ready but it was now up to PS and microsoft to have a look at it i guess b4 they realease it on their network (not an official source tho). Didnt kno this was being adressed in the patch.

if and until they fix it, you can usually avoid a flip if you remember to ease off on the elevator as your plane starts to slow down.

I've managed a couple landings at Dover with aviator by centering the stick when the plane gets below about 70kph and then extending stopping distance by yawing left and right.

It still takes the entire runway though, so I had to turn around and take off in the other direction. I haven't managed the entire inspection mission with just aviator layout.

finally managed to do that inspection mission (thanks silence!!!)
Ok so the trick to land on sim is to do a soft touch (as any normal landing) with speed between 120 and 150 km/h and throttle at about 30% (faster is possible but can make for quite a bumpy ride and crash).

When both front wheels have touchdown and plane is steady, ease off on all controls, raise the landing flaps, bring throttle down to minimum (without braking) so the back wheel touches down. Wait for speed to drop to 100 km/h then put the brakes full on and hold them until the plane come to a complete stop. You'll still hit that "bump" at speeds of 40-60 km/h but the plane wont tip over. I've managed to do some quite short landing this way, being able to take off in the same direction on even the shortest runways...rudder being stuck to the left is a killer when taking off again tho :( so watch out for that

Edit: I usually fly with the aviator settings on the control pad so I have to change it to the wireless control settings whenever i have to land b/c 1st option doesnt offer pecise throttle and braking control

mh im going crazy in this airfield inspection mission.

im flying it on sim mode and have done these three landings,but the mission doesent end.is there a second goal in this mission?

thanks for your help

It's a bit weird. For me it only worked to make a full stop landing, then it gave the message: <airfield name> inspected, or something similar. If you don't get that message, it doesn't count.

yes,its weird for me too,it said on the radio that everything seems ok on the fields and the blinking point on the map disapeard from it and there is nothing more to do.just a few hurricans flying at high level.strange not?

and a other strange thing,when i press the circle buton for the map,the plane always makes crazy things

Hmm, that's odd. It's been a while since I've done the mission, so I can't really help more than I have.

About the map thing: in some single missions, when you open the map you can cycle through the planes in your flight. This means you can fly in any plane in your flight (I believe it's two in that mission) by using the up and down buttons/joystick (not sure which one it is on the PS3). This also means that as soon as you switch to map view, AI takes over control of the plane you were flying. So when you're in map view, AI has control over all the planes in your flight.

ok,no problem.

how endet your mission?did you had to to something else?

Not as far as I can remember.

there might be a bug in this missions tho.
it happened to me once where i landed in all 3 airfield, they stopped flashing on the map but still the mission continued for no apparent reason.
Just do it again (i kno it sucks), the mission should end as soon as you come to a complete stop on the last runway

cheers
