View Full Version : Flat tire

The tire on my Baron looks low. This is impossible, since in MSFS there is
no need to put air in tires. Is there a switch on the panel that inflates
the tires? If so, where is it located?

Can anyone explain this anomaly?

It's next to the ejection seat switch.

Damn, you're just having all kinds of problems. At least your MSFS fuel is
still cheap! :)

OK, one is funny, two or more are beginning to not be.

Is this really ViperDoc or is this an imposter?

Interestingly enough, there is a simulator for a kingair 200 that does
introduce low tires, low oil and such. And the pilot gets to make
maintenance decisions.

The left engine needs oil, it will cost 18 dollars, proceed? Yes/No

Something like that.

Oh, God that would be horrible. I can understand maintenance where
maybe you'd have to get mx to perform your 100 hour or something, but
having to pay for it??

I used to play the Sims a while ago and the more you play it, the more
it seems like life without the fun. Go to work, study, clean, eat,
try to have some fun somewhere, pay bills, repeat.

Hmm. Seems like "The Sims" are a pretty good human life simulator.

I should start basing all of my social descisions on episodes of
The Sims.

Hey, does anyone remember the cheat where you get to move your sims
around while in build mode?

TIA

It's your density altitude. How
far below MSL are you.

It's an in-game add for AirStop tubes.

Switch to an external view of the airplane, put the mouse
cursor on the flat tire, and blow into the mouse. Won't work with
cordless mice.
