Steve Colbert Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I tried flying to my new KBLU from KSTS in my Cessna turboprop today, it said I "crashed" while touching down. Oh well, maybe I was going too fast I thought, but can normally land that anywhere. So I flew my Citation II there, was anout to make a perfect landing and boom! Another crash?! Something is very wrong here....no fixes? Thanks, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Maybe a crash box there, Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertPilot Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 There have been several topics on the KBLU crash issue. Search on "KBLU crash". I believe the current recommendation is to turn off crash detection in FSX or P3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Colbert Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Thanks Desert Pilot, that worked. I'm just very relieved I'm not THAT bad of a pilot. After the first disaster I brought that Citation in so carefully...white knuckles and all of it, perfect speed, perfect flaps, that gorgeous but terrifying canyon below...right about to plant it gently right beyond the displaced threshold and BOOM! Airports on cliffs scare me to death...yet I can't seem to get enough of 'em! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Better to fly 'em in the sim, rather than in real life, eh, Steve? Yeah, disable crash detection does the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably still need "Flying School" - I was showing my wife a takeoff in the Citation from Juneau, gawked at the pretty scenery in outside view, and promptly went into a horrible stall and crashed! But in the case of the KBLU landings I was focused and actually looking out the windshield, not playing with the "V" key Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloppysmusic Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Turning off crash detection is NOT a solution! Noticed several posts about this so I am posting this reply in all of them in the hope it will be fixed. I had to post a video to YT to complain about another devs lack of a fix for a local airfield before they agreed to fix it after ALSO saying turn CD off. I never intend to 'fly' with it off anywhere! FSX Steam Edition FTX Central latest Win 10 64 bit KBLU BCN ORbX US Scenery (all of it) FS Genesis (does not give problem with any other airfield - wouldnt I SEE me hitting the ground if there was a conflict?) I have EXACTLY the same problem. Had it for months, just decided to post about it but see it already here. First noticed it during a perfect landing with A2A Mustang....as soon as touched the runway = CRASH! I thought what? No problem with airport elevation as looked great. Repeated twice from reload then decided to just load aircraft straight at parking spot. From memory I believed this worked but as soon as I moved the plane one inch = CRASH! So i thought I'd load the plane to the runway.. CRASH! Some airfields have had similar problems which have been fixed by uninstalling and re-installing again. Not KBLU. The other strips in the pack are fine, I make a point of landing on every Orbx strip I own (which is all but 2 world-wide) and this is currently the only strip with problem as described by OP above, If you wish I can make a video of me landing there with Xsplit and share from YouTube. Regards Russ Of course I love my OrbX - I own almost all of it would love to be able to use this strip! PS I had a 'crashbox' problem with another devs KDAB. Plane always crashed during approach with crash detection on. I Posted video of incident and devs found and fixed the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
