Extra 300LT Engine cut out

Hi everyone, Experienced the engine completely cut out randomly whilst flying under the Hoover Dam bridge. Happened far too soon after the sim loaded in for it to be fuel related. Thought it might have just been my poor piloting so attempted it again but flying through Tower bridge in London and safe to say I met my demise again. Has anyone else experienced this or know what could have possibly caused it?

I’m no expert, but that could be from the way the scenery is created.
I believe bridges are made solid, with masks to imitate water placed on them.

That sounds like a variant of an old problem.

Going under the Golden Gate Bridge would bring you to a hard stop on the bridges deck.

I went under it at the weekend, and it brought me down to the water but I kept going.

Other bridges I have flown under have not done this, though, so it appears to vary from one to the other.

Hello world,

I encountered the same phenomenon. After doing loopings around the Bixby Creek Bridge, I tried it three times at the Golden Gate. But each time I passed the bridge, the engine cut out. :exploding_head::scream:

First I thought it could have been related to the meteorological conditions. Engine freezing frog? :smiley:
