Title: Don't Sink
Post by Michael2 on Mar 3rd, 2009 at 7:51am
Since 2.1 I am getting the "don't sink" warning when landing.  I can't find anyway to turn it off.  This is with a saved flight at which I sart at 6000 feet and then fly the approach. Possibly if I flew the entire flight in one go I wouldn't have this problem?

What's is your speed ?

Active Sky (if you have it) can also put you in the ground on the approach. Check your wake turbulence and wind sheer settings.

Speed is Vref +5 or thereabouts.  I am using REX for weather. The warning starts at a particular altitude, although I didn't note what it was -- probably around 1500 to 1000 feet.

Yeah Im too am getting the "dont sink" no matter what speed or VSI im at during certain feet from the ground. It gets annoying after awhile. :-[

I get this also, starts somewhere around 2000-1500 feet and doesn't go away until the wheels touch ground.

normally, on all Boeings this will happen if you have way to much fuel.

cant land with 100% fuel.

so check that. if you only have 10%, you shouldn't get this warning as much.

try that

This happens on many addon-planes!
Simple solution: just add the following line to your aircraft.cfg:

[GPWS]
max_warning_height = -1 //disable integral FSX GPWS

Timo

Thanks for that info Timo.  I was getting that from another sim and it was frustrating me.  Now I'll shut his mouth!

This was part of the growing pains of the 727; Just add what Simpilot suggests in your aircraft.cfg and  it will stay quite.
