Two Crashes flying 2 flights...

[jan_aviation]

Hello ,

today I bought the A340 because I only heard good things but as I started my first flight, the plane crashed without any warning seconds after takeoff from ZRH. I tried again , that time at FRA and I was not succesful. 

I recorded my flight and here is what happened at ZRH, I also attached some screenshots of the last moments from my flight...

-takeoff with flaps 1

- gear up, pos rate of climb

- 2700ft : climbrate of 2600ft per min , flaps going to 0

- 3000ft : turning left , clb rate 2100 , speed 190 kt

- 3800ft: stil banking left a bit , speed 200

- 4000ft : airplane keeps loosing speed and crashes down

 

The same happened at FRA after takeoff but that time at round about 1700ft. 

I can't attach the video here because it is too big but I hope that the description is helpful. Did I do something wrong or were both examples WASM crashes?

 

Thanks in advance

Not hijacking, just backing up the OP. In the middle of my first flight, had a WASM crash, aircraft unresponsive.

In the image you can see the aircraft banking left verses the level AH, and I powered off engines 1 and 2 with no effect.

Hello,

Apologies for the inconvenience. Can you both confirm these were indeed WASM crashes? Was the clock still running? 
We are unfortunately not able to help much unless we receive a proper report relating to the crash. One can be made by following this guide:

I red through the article "is it a WASM crash" , I am not 100% sure what it was but the same thing happened twice , so I do not think that it was a handling error of me as "pilot flying" .

Now it is to late for me to turn on my PC and look at the video again, but I am sure that I was even able to reduce the thrust after the plane fell of the sky. It really felt like "it felt off" due to the loss of speed , eventhough all engines were running and nothing serious happened.

Tomorrow I will look up the video again and give you more information later the day, thanks for the fast answers , I hope we can stay in contact .

Same for me. TJSJ-KMIA after 2 hours all the the DU's froze. Was able to hand fly without any instruments but it was pointless.

Same here 😞 Shame this by far my fav to fly now just wish it did not have this WASM thingy 😕

I am back again and took a look on the video....

-The clock continued running after I crashed into the ground,

-I was able to reduce the thust on ground .
