Well I had just landed at LAX after a long flight from Belgium, touched down on runway 6R at LAX, Spoilers and reversers deployed everything fine when all of a sudden, the client decides to say I have CRASHED!!!!!!!!!
Now this is a shame because the flight was going well, this has put me in quite a mood!!! lol
Hope somoeone can help with this problem!?
Thanks Phil
P.S. What about my ratings, I dnt wnt to have a crash on my record and the bad rating which I have been trying to get as high as possible!!!

Did you by any chance have a stall on approach(speaking from experience) or was the angle for landing to great so that the tail scraped the runway, maybe? anyone shed anyfurther light on this, is there a bug at lax like BigQ suggested at birmingham lol

From what you described, FS9 did not say crash but the flynet client did. Is that correct?

I know for a fact from other members, that LAX has not given this error. Emmet has brought down MD-11s, and 747s in LAX (and those are the touchiest aircraft you can land, with weight restrictions in mind) with nary a problem.
Please elaborate more: Was it default scenery? What aircraft? Landing angle, other abnormalities etc.

Well it was an A346 and everything was fine, the landing in my eyes was good!!! The tail was too low, I didnt stall on approach, it was the same landing that I had always done! I just dont get it!!!
In reply to Joe, the client said CRASHED, not FS!!!! It was when I slowed down and checked the Flynet Flight Monitor that I saw I had crashed!!!
MOST STRANGE!

Just fly more often without any crashes or mistakes, it'll go up...

Sounds like a tail strike to me. A346 can do that quite easily, i forget the max angle you can be at on landing, but its pretty shallow.

Tail strike is possible but how would flynet register it as a crash if FS9 did not?

FS9 crash detection off? that would let FS9 get away with it... Meanwhile I'm not sure but i don't think Flynet uses the FS9 detection. Does it not have it's own built in?

No, FlyNET uses the FS crash detection, and I can't think of a way the client registers a crash when the FS doesn't. Very strange...
