Invisible floor when flying below sea level in Death Valley

So I took off from Furnace Creek in Death Valley (around 200ft below sea level) and ascended by about 1000ft, then dropped back down to the desert floor, however at around 100ft below sea level I hit an invisible floor even though the desert floor was around -200ft.

I then restarted and took off again only this time I kept my altitude about 10ft off the desert floor for about a mile, when I pulled up I hit the invisible wall from the bottom.

Same issue Here …

While trying to take off or flight around place that is under the sea level (i.e. Death sea, Furnace Creek, Dallol depression…) The game think my plane crash cause it think I crashed into the ground…

Same here I landed on the invisible floor (albeit with my gear up)… :smiley:

I tried again and landed on the floor SSW of Furnace Creek…
I then taxied towards furnace creek and shortly before reaching the airport I fell off the floor and landed on the actual ground.
It appears that the invisible floor isn’t in place immediately around the airport.

That’s awesome! Gotta try that when I get home. lol

Hi,

Anyone have the same issue ?

Yep, same issue. I will report it too. This is a huge bug

I have the same issue.

The plane lands “up in the sky” because the ground is under sea level.

Example : landed in Furnace Creek (Death Valley, USA) !

So not landing at an airport? Because, for example, KCLR (-182 elev) works fine.

Flying out of Furnace Creek airstrip (L06) in Death Valley, Calif., US, where the runway is 210 feet below sea level. Encountering an occasional issue where when I reach sea level on my altimeter the game gives me the “you have crashed into an object and caused critical damage to the aircraft” end to the flight. This can happen either ascending or descending.
