Default Inspect Airfeilds...

WOW, I am just about ready to throw my controller threw my TV...

No matter what I do when the plane comes in to land, I flip the damn thing. I've tried just applying full brakes all the time, all the different flaps, and letting the brakes off around the 60km/h marker to stop the plane from flipping, but none of that works. Soooo, any suggestions?

Gamepad or joystick?

I've never had a problem with pad. Except for when I would touch down and still have my stick pushed to far forward.

Just use the virtual cockpit to land and come in at a very shallow angle. You'll land every time then, speed about 120mph

I have no problem with getting on the ground. It's just stopping. My plane flips everytime, and there seems to be nothing i can do about it. Even if i dont apply the brakes, it flips

I was alittle confused also with this level although i beat it first time through. All i did was land at the first airfield i approached and them i just took off and circled each airfield focusing my target retical on the buildings and parts of the landing strip.

Good luck pilot.

OK, Thx for all the help here guys, and after about 10 tries, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. In order to correct the tipping, I thought I should push my elevators all the way down, forcing all three wheels to stay on the ground. WRONG! lol. The was just making the issue even worse, so what I did was leave the elevators alone, and voila! Perfect landing everytime.

That's it Silence - had the same trouble m'self - the trick is not to use the elevators, for some reason. As a bonus, if you do start to tip and you haven't used the elevators, if you use them then it helps . Well worked out .
