You fix it by spending 40 dollars on the Level D 767 :). Other than reinstalling, I don't know what to say. The fleet 767 has some serious issues at times.

How hard are you landing? My most recent logbook entry is a JFK->SNN trip in the 763. No issues.

You probably have the flight attendant slider all the way on "husky". Try reducing it to "pleasantly plump" or "fit and trim" that should fix your problem.

Prob. an issue with the contact points. I had the same problem with the fleet 757-200. I just downloaded the POSKY 757-200 from avsim (I know the fleet 757 is the same but the one on avsim has updated and alternate contact points for the landing gear). Then i copied and pasted the contact points from POSKY to fleet in the aircraft.cfg file.

Have you tried the latest version? I think Charly's done some work there, and I am going to examine the static_pitch for it. Additionally, the new 757 Installer will include the 753s. The size increase is pretty minimal.
Cheers!

Yes Luke I downloaded the new 757. Not exactly sure if the contact points were all the answer but after some great help from Charly and psting thos from the POSKY from avsim, I haven't had a single prob at all! Charly gave me some new contact points as well that I updated at the same time. 753's nice I'll be keeping an eye out for 'em.
Thanks
