So I was flying my 767 in Delta colors KLAX-KDFW and accidentally missed Dallas-Fort Worth after leaving the house for longer than I anticipated and ended up over Buffalo, Ny by the tiem I got home. Anyways I was admiring Captain Sim's great quality them I saw, in flight those dust exluders hanging on the pitot tubes and static ports. I went to animations panel and they were off. What is wrong, this looks totally unrealistic.

That happens to me sometimes. It generally happens if you turn on the dust excluders earlier and then turn them off--they'll turn back on later with no way to make them go away. Other than that, I have not found a good fix. I'll post a topic in the "It would be nice if..." section about this.

I have only had it happen once. The dust extruders were showing and never disappeared. I had to restart FSX and then my flight. It's been fine ever since. Weird!

I tried your tip of restarting the flight, and it worked for a month or so, but all of the sudden a couple days ago the dust excluders reappeared!

I can't figure out why it is doing it in the first place, let alone why it would return after about a month. Huh
To be honest though. I rarely use most of those animations (sorry Captain Sim). Nice as they are, they usually aren't showing when the aircraft loads and so I just don't bother turning them on, only to have to turn them off later anyway. I go through a pretend boarding/cargo loading and debarking/cargo unloading a lot, but just don't use those animations. I load the aircraft, open the cargo doors and main door, attach the jetway, then get everything organized for the flight. After taxiing to the gate, it's the reverse.

I had similar problem with wheel chocks in CS 757. I turned them off in the animation panel, but they did not disappear. Even after I took off and retracted the landing gear the wheel chocks were still visible. Restarting FSX solved the problem.

I'm not sure where the problem is with these "bugs." I've had similar problems with many other add-on planes and even the ones in the FSX stable, that my guess it's more an FSX dirty code problem.  Angry

I've submitted a ticket. Hopefully we will see a fix for this in the next update.

By the way, PJ747, I used your pic for the ticket.  Wink
