Greetings.

My planes sit on the ground nicely in CFS1, but the same plane in CFS2 'sinks' into the ground halfway up to its wheels.

I have changed the DP file to have it sit correctly while paused, but once it moves, it sinks again. I usually tried to fix these in CFS1 in the landing gear or COG or angle, but nothing in my box of tricks works.

Suggestions please. I would like to complete these planes for CFS2

Thanks

Remember, in CFS2 as in FS2002/2004, how the plane "sits" is set in the aircraft.cfg file, not the DP file.

See the [contact points] section of the aircraft.cfg
