Running FI from SEA to DEN. Paused simulator for about an hour before descent. When I resumed flight FI kept switching between Menu and Sim (see link to video).

Does this do the same with 1.9 ? Can you replicate this issue mate ?

Hi
I get exactly the same problem but thankfully not as bad as you. I hadn't touched anything and fi just dumps me out of the vc then after about 5 seconds im back in the vc again as though nothing happened ?. the worst with this though is if i have any windows open in the vc when fI puts me back in the vc again the windows are scattered all over the place & i need to clean up . i did a flight from Amsterdam to Garrick and i think fi did this trick four times the last time was literally as the wheels touched down at Gatwick. I must admit this is starting to get a bit irritating so i hope we find a fix soon :D

Tony,

I can replicate it. I have Flightbeam sceneries and I tried another flight from Denver again (at night). The problem was worse at the gate. I have all the other Flightbeam sceneries that don't seem to have this problem.

What can I provide you with?

So Gatwick is the scenery you've seen this problem? Any other sceneries?

hi Howard
yes I did a trip from Frankfurt to Heathrow in the 747 and had the same problem, Gatwick is uk2000 scenery but heathrow is arerosoft scenery. interestingly it seem to happen most when flying into the London area. i wonder if its related to a heavy scenery area being loaded all at once and fI gets nudge out ? weird
i do also get the very occasional black screen " your display driver has stopped working but has now recovered " i only have these things when using fly inside :(

I might have a solution. Can you replicate? If so, set your Scenery Complexity to Very Sparse under Graphics/World. Let me know if that helps.

I think it's a combination of PMDG and certain sceneries.

Agreed, I have both UK2000 Heathrow and Gatwick, but I don't use PMDG models and I don't have this issue at all.
