[ALREADY REPORTED] F18 inverted ground effect bug

[DLEGION]

hello, i didnt found it elsewhere, so i report it here:

 

the F18 under 20ft seems to have some sort of "inverted ground effect" … it kinda sucks the plane into the ground.

to test..just fly on a flat surface (sea or land) under 20ft to experience the bug.

thanks, bye.

Presently it's speed related and it occurs (luckily) only at high speed. At normal approach speeds ground effect is at least plausible.

This caused so many deaths on my side that I'm really suprised it hasn't been reported already.

 

I'm used to flying low from the Viggen and other aircraft, so that I always forget about the inversed ground effect of the Hornet (which doesn't seem realistic to me :huh:) and die. Even when I remember it and try to be carefully it often leads to me getting sucked in when I accidently get too low.

I vaguely remember this being reported before and was going to be addressed at some point... don't have a link though because I forget where I saw it.

Inverted ground effect?

 

So, this is something that happens since day 1, but not with any other module. When you fly low, you'll get sucked into the ground.

 

What is up with that?
