Pilot Blacks Out When Open Window Above Ground
-
Good evening dear BlackSquare Users and Devs.
Today is a great day, really enjoying Bonanza Professional, thank you very much for your hard work.
I am having some trouble when opening my window above ground level, my player seems to blackout and the airplane stalls or crash(or something like that).
MSFS 2024 SU4 Beta - crash damage disabled in settings.
I'm sorry if I'm missing something, this is my first time writing in a forum.
Here is a video of the problem happening:

Interesting video. I hadn't seen how MSFS 2024 handles this yet.
Luckily, a very simple solution for you. Just unselect "Disable Aircraft Stress Damage" in the same area of the settings menu that you found "Disable Aircraft Crash Damage".
Let me know if you have any more trouble! You know where to find me.

Thank you very much, the solution worked for me

Having a blast here with the Bonanza and Baron. -
Excellent! Glad it worked. Enjoy!

I've always wondered. My experience is if the window is open while taking off the plane will experience a crash. I'm a sim pilot so I don't know if that's how it is in real life.

It's just the poor MSFS implementation of crash and stress damage, and it's recommended almost universally to turn it off.
I would normally refrain from commenting on things involving real aviation since I am but a humble sim pilot*, but I feel reasonably confident that leaving the storm window open during takeoff or any phase of flights will not cause the aircraft fuselage to fail.
*Although I do tell every 737 pilot that I have a few hours in the PMDG 737, and I'll be in 14F if they need me.

@jmarkows You are correct, an open storm window wont cause a plane to crash. Incidentally, at higher speeds its almost impossible to open the storm window (at least in a Cherokee). Once its open you don't notice it all that much, unless you get a piece of paper close to the open window- then its literally gone in a blink of an eye lol.
Now when you board an airliner, before you tell them of your PMDG experience, hold up a fuel strainer and ask if they have already sumped the tanks. We LOVE that
