Hey guys, does someone know if it's normal that the plane stops when we fly a long distance. I can do a small fly but for a long one I can't. Someone know how to repair that ?

Do you mean that your engines shut down?

If so you probably ran out of fuel.

Which aircraft does this occur with?

use the F10 menu in the sim... one of the options should be for the craft and there may be a sub-menu in there for setting your craft's weight and fuel... it may be in another menu instead of the one for the craft... it depends on how the craft was coded...

"Why not?" said Gurder.
