Pretty sure you can’t dive with a positive rate of climb. ;)

It was on TS1, I contacted Miami tower while I was still at FL400!

Did you decide to land there and then?

You shouldn’t be diving on the training servers or the expert server.
FL400 is not tower’s airspace. That’s center’s airspace.

Wow that is great! I am glad you enjoy making the sim so realistic for everyone else with your actions.

- I did not violate any instructions.
- Center was not logged on.
- I tried to land but the auto pilot descended below my target of FL40 so I crashed.

What aircraft.
All those souls, lost aboard a crazy pilots aircraft. blown into smithereens as soon as it crashed
NTSB REPORT
—no report because the NTSB could not find any bit of the aircraft, or anything basically–
50 years on a new grass has started growing in the area the plane crashed. it’s been named “wildblood grass”

So why did you contact tower and clog up their freq 35000ft above their airspace?

Don’t worry. I was flying SOFIA so no passengers.
Also the location of the cockpit on the upper deck saved the flight crew.

–NTSB Report-
After the crash dive the aircraft made an approach to land when it suddenly descended & crashed thanks to the autopilot going back to the previous setting, fortunately the captain disengaged the A/P seconds before impact & pulled back hard. The aircraft struck tail first.

@CaptainSpeedbird1974. " I’m a teen from the DC area. I’m aiming to be cabin crew for British Airways. My favorite aircraft is the VC10. I don’t have a live subscription yet be I hope to soon." Interesting Bio Bird. I don’t really enjoy the unprofessional antics of new members like you who hone there flying skills with a little pixel dust now and again across the IF Universe. Your in like company I note from the supportive comment. I encourage you and your supporters to pursue your frivolous pursuit via the the SOLO Server so you can watch the video repeatedly for your " own" enjoyment. Have a nice day Lad. Max Sends

Once I was flying with my friend, then I accidentally disengaged autopilot while my tablet was on a table. At least I didn’t get a violation. Another time was when we were doing training for the Olympics, I was on right downwind then I dropped my iPad.
