Planes disappear at runway when landing

[Fran11player]

Hello guys.

I am currently editing a Cold War campaign on the Normandy map (I know you purists, but please don't mind me) and when I set a transport plane like Yak-40 or An-26B to land at a French airport they land well, but they suddenly disappear, like they have been evaporated, instead of starting to taxi.

I have tried at various airports and the weird thing is that fighters like the MiG-25 land and taxi succesfully.

I don't know if it is a bug that you knew but just in case.

Thanks for the attention.

If the aircraft is too big for the airport, it despawns on the runway. 

If you however think that the aircraft should be able to taxi around on the airport with enough wingtip clearance, you should submit a proper bug report.

Thank you very much for your answer. 

I have been trying with almost every capable airport in the map and I came with one that is able to taxi the Yak-40. These two were Evreux and Conches, if someone is interested.

Here I let you some pictures, including a beautiful formation landing of MiG-25.

Have you found a solution yet ? i am trying to setup a tanker and I set the airport as a rearm and refuel waypoint for him and give a 5 min timer he lands but immediately after he lands he despawns haven't found a solution yet

Give it a bigger airport to land at, or consider the option to respawn the tanker instead of going for a ground refuel.

yes that worked but i still think its very strange bandar abbas is a  big enough  airport for a kc135 but you are right

To find the airports modern big jets can land-taxi'in-shutdown,
you choose the jet's 1st (no. 0) waypoint as Takeoff from ramp (or parking hot).

The waypoint will snap to some airport's some parking slots like Maupertus 01-02  / Lessay 15 / Conches 03-04 / Sainte-Laurent-sur-Mer 19-22,32-35.
Those slots are available for the aircraft to land-taxi'in-shutdown.
Other airports / airbases are not ---- runway disappear after landed.

When "(X) Error set to airfield. No free airport." message is shown about Takeoff from ramp,
No airport has enough space to taxi-out / taxi-in in the terrain area for the too big aircraft.

Understood i will check the airfields like that the next time thank you

I have reported this many times, Normandy should be able to take the C47 on any field...but cannot. Ugra have never responded
