When I land with the plane, the shockabsorvers of the maingear do not dive. This is a pity. Any patch available? Many thanks and best regards

Well actually they do , if you watch a landing ,say at half speed,from a locked spot view,from the front, you can see the shocks moving,but it only seems to happen after the nose gear has touched down.I don't know how realistic this is. Maybe Lou could give a better answer.It probably also depends on the gross weight at landing.

In real they extend as the aircraft lifts off and remain extended until touchdown where the shock-absorber activates the air-ground sensor via rh main landing gear teleflex cable.
cheers, Lex
