Hello, I confirm that there is a problem over threshold runway 14, a sort of invisible wall that makes the aircraft falling on the ground when passing 100 ft just before the threshold.
Very annoying and frustrating. I was on glideslope and the PAPI was two white two red and BAM, landing ruined...
I have ORBX global and FTX Vector installed and the elevator tool from Vector has been run.
We need a solution to this problem please.

Hi Thorsten, it was PMDG 777-300ER in P3Dv4.2.
I also have the same problem when landing on Runway 30, see my old topic.
And when landing runway 31 at Seychelles. All three with the 777 from PMDG.

I don't have the problem when landing rwy 14 with the new 787 from Quality Wings in P3D.

Stéphane.

Hello,
I raise this topic because I have the same problem as the users above on the approach to the ILS 14 at the runway threshold the plane crashes in one fell swoop with the 777 of PMDG. I only own FTX Global. Can we have a fix because it starts to be exhausting! thank you

We have not been able to solve this issue with PMDG aircraft yet. There seems to be something PMDG-specific that causes this to happen.

I'm seeing the same thing with the PMDG 747 100% of the time over the threshold of Runway 14. Any idea when/if this will be fixed with PMDG aircraft. The scenery is fantastic other than this issue.

Thanks,
Matt

We haven't been able to find the exact reason for the crash yet.

Hello,

still no solution for this "invisble wall" crash with PMDG aircraft 777s and 747s?
I was just performing some training circuit, taking off runway 32, performing a RNAV approach RWY 30 using IAN with the 747-8. I was perfectly established on the "GP" (remember using IAN in the 747-8) and the PAPI was 2 red 2 white. When approaching Threshold RWY30 at around 100-150ft, the aircraft was slammed down to the runway, like if an invisible giant hand forced the aircraft to go down to the runway.
Very frustrating.
I have both ORBX Global Base Pack and Vector installed. I have run the Vector Tools to correct for elevation.
This only happens with PMDG big aircraft, not the 737s, not the DC6, not the FSLabs 319-320, not with the Leonardo MD80s series.
And it happens RWY 14 or RWY 30 (not tested RWY12 for the time being).

We can confirm this behavior. It only happens on this airport and only with these PMDG aircraft. We have reached out to PMDG but weren't able to find the reson for those crashes yet.

As a temporary fix can you please replace the original 'cvxREU_LC.BGL' in the FSDG-Reunion/scenery folder with the attached one?
