A321 after Dec 9th update

[Coopercok]

Hi there.
Something gone wrong with this update, will not gain enough speed quick enough to take off from a7500ft runway.... Was fine before, seems really heavy and slow now. Any ideas.
Thanks

Nothing was done in the performance of the aircraft. We fixed some interior lights and fixed some modeling bugs such as the port oleo leg.

7,500 feet and what airport, aircraft variant, elevation, Outside air temperature, loads etc?

please tell us this info so we can test.

Paro, never messed with any loads, left as world map loaded. Temp as this afternoon, sorry leap asiana colours

In real life taking off from Paro on the 321neo would be illegal or at least a challenge, considering the airport elevation and runway available.

Airport elevation is 7,323feet. You need 9000feet of runway at sea level if flying MTOW (full load). The main problem with Paro its the elevation, you would need twice the runway for a takeoff at Paro because of the elevation very likely with the 321neo.

I suggest you put minimal fuel to fly to the closest airport, and much less than half the pay-load for you to takeoff sucessfully on the 321neo in Paro. Don't fly with auto thrust limiting your engines. So use 100% throttle.

The biggest plane allowed to fly legally in Paro is the 320neo. Other than that the 319 is the norm. In any case if you do like I mention you might be able to takeoff.

If you like do a similar test on SEQM its almost 8,000 feet above sea level, however the runway is almost 12,000 feet long. on a moderate load the 321neo takes off decently as it should.
