This is the second time this happened and it happened after a beautiful landing again...I land, taxi and shut down the engines. After unloading the passengers I can see my flight stats, but no comment on my landing. The line is just empty and below is "I want to be a better pilot".
The first time this happened, I made a beautiful landing too, but I bumped off the runway a bit. But not this time. I landed on the front gear and settled the main gear down very gentle. Got applause and a compliment by the FO. I made a screenshot of it this time but I can't post it here...attachment limit is reached.
Any ideas, what could cause that?

Cheers

Did you check that your passengers were still on board when back at the gate? I tend to lose them right after landing, along with Heidi because everything is being reset after landing for whatever reason. Perhaps this is the same issue?

How bad was your flight? Maybe the negative out weighs the positive? Not criticizing... :)

Passengers were still on board after landing. At least, when I pushed the unload button after shutdown of the engines.
And my flight was really good. All my flights have been good until now. Passengers comment was: "I was so comfortable on that airplane". Had the ball in the mid, most of the time. It just got a bit off on approach, but I had the seatbelt signs on.
Maybe he only comments after 2 beautiful landings. Cause he always commented on bad ones. My landings in order: ok, bad, bad, beautiful, ok, beautiful. Or the beautiful comments are missing^^

Ok, it really gets annoying now. I made my second beautiful landing in a row and still there is no comment from the pilot. It was a nose gear landing but I got applause and a compliment from the FO again.

I already deleted my last saved flight and began a new one this time, but still the same. Is this a bug or was the landing "not worth mentioning"? Everything else works in the logbook. I didn't lose my passengers either. No complaints from them.

Is someone else experiencing this?

Cheers

I've had several landings where I get some applause but no comments in the Captains Log about the landing.

I see that happen when I make a smooth landing but maybe not quite runway center when I touch down. I think there are several things that will get you a round of applause but yet the landing had some tiny aspect that wasn't quite right.

Ok, I didn't know that a rating also depends on runway center etc. But that you get no comment at all is weird. Are you sure its not a bug? It is a landing nonetheless, so why not comment on it?^^ Next time I try to land dead center. Does the nosewheel landing affect the rating? Maybe I have to touch down with the main wheels first to get a rating?

Thx for the answer. Now I know, I'm not alone with that.

Cheers
