Hi,

Real fast note here. I notice on Autoland that sometimes the plane hits the
runway nose first, bounces up and keeps going as if taking off. What would
cause this. Would wrong elevation press setting be the cause?

Also, on landing the brakes come on, but I have autobrake OFF, and once on
the ground if I either want to taxi, they wont go off and if I were to do a
go a round, they still are showing on.

Any thoughts.

Randy

I also had problems with brakes automatically on at landing though not
configured for that. It turned out that I had an option in MCP.ini enabled. Can't
remember the name now.

Hi,

Make sure you set the right QNH because it that is not correct your plane
will either flare too late or too soon.

What weight, speed and flap setting did that happen with? How far away were

you from Vref?

Thanks, I will check it out. I had looked at all the ini files, but maybe
missed it.
