allen,

not surewhat you are desribing,but,,,,,,,

i did a ifr direct from L77 KPSP , palm springs approach cleared me for
visual 13R and handed me off to palm springs tower (weather clear -no wind).
lined up and on final approx 10 nm out when handed over.
palm springs tower then had me make right traffic for 31L, i thought that
was kinda strange.

i'll try again tomorrow morning with same flight using fs2004 to see if same
outcome.

i'll re-post results here :-)

Hey,
does anyone have a problem getting aircraft to land at KPSP?

Takeoffs are fine, landings at other airports are fine and even approaches
are
fine at KPSP. They approach at about 2,400 ft 10 mi out, then climb
abruptly to 3500 ft 6 mi out, then
it's too late to make a proper decent. They go "missed", circle around
and do the same thing again.
Any idea what's keeping them from touching down?

Thanks,
