Problem climbing in 757-200 (Read 272 times)

Just downloaded the IFDG 757-200 in the Song livery for FS2002. Everything was going ok until I got to FL100. At that point I tried to increase the IAS to 300 but the plane failed to increase speed. I even tried to set it to Mach and still failed. After about Fl180 the plane began to lose both speed and altitude. Very frustrating. I was climbing at 1,300 fpm which is propoer procedure for this aircraft.

Any thoughts? Anyone else have this problem?

Your IAS won't increase, but check-out your groundspeed Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Groundspeed is decreasing as well. Never gets above 290 KTS.

I've had trouble with icing at times and it causes simailar problems, Check your OAT guage and turn the wing deicer on if needed.

AMD Athlon 64 3700+&&GeForce FX5200 256Mb&&1GB DDR400 DC&&Seagate 500Gb SATA-300 HDD&&Windows XP Professional X64 Edition&&&&That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they kicked the pants off of my P4 3.4!

Is the plane fully loaded or what? Large airplanes tend to be bricks when fully loaded. Specially if it's hot out.

Pilot for a major US airline certified in the: EMB-120, CRJ, 727, 737, 757, 767, and A-320 and military, T-38, C-130, C-141, and C-5 along with misc. other small airplanes. Any questions, I'm here for you.
