SU-33 1.2.8 Beta Engine failure

[fjacobsen]

Can anyone explain what might have caused this:

 

During approach to the carrier, I heard a "puf" and both engines failed and caught fire.

 

I was fully configured - Hook down. Gear down, flaps extended.

Throttles was set to keep the approach speed of 270 km/h.

It should be AOA too large that the engine touch deck

Track?

Track?

 

Sorry I forgot to save a track, but it simply came out of nowhere...

 

But I also had too high AOA in mind, though I rather expected a flameout rather than an engine fire to evolve. On the otherside if airflow is disrupted while still spraying fuel into the engine, to little amount of bypass air could be present to cool down the engine core.

I just don´t expect that the FC3 aircraft are that detailed.

My English is not so good,and internet translatror dont help much.

You said you was at aproach. So you had fire at engine until you was in the air or when touch the runway at carrier?

Both engines simply went on fire in midair when I was just 30 seconds from landing on the carrier.

Mh i guess itll be pretty hard to find the reason without the track... :(

Multiple simultaneous bird strikes? =P

one bird. went in one engine, out the other.

Ah - that makes sense :music_whistling:

[Zabuzard]

Bird strikes only occure if enabled in the settings (or mission settings)

Sounds like random damage options set in the mission. Without a track it will be impossible to tell.
