Flight Simlator and that yabayaba...

Well talk about progress. Last night I flew an Irish domestic flight, complete disaster... Two stalls and a dodgy NDB DME approach followed by dumping the plane onto the runway pretty much writing off the main undercarriage.

Tonight, textbook flight and landing.

That's some 2600ft of runway... The biggest thing I have in my FS fleet is (I know, it's horrible) an A380...

That's not gonna work.

That plane must hate you.

An ERJ cant even take off from sounds. But it looks great.

I have tried taking off with an ERJ on a 3500ft runway and I very, very nearly made it. But if there had been real people in that house, I would have been sued.

Try taking off with that really big russian cargo plane with 6 engines from SEA!

I managed to jump of the ground right before the big tall buildings in downtown Seattle.

the people in that house wouldn't have sued you, unless dead people could somehow sue other dead people.

Well the relatives would.

@Seattle: and to think i designed a plane with 18 engines once :shock: (it is used for space travel)

dude, can I download it? or did u just draw it?

I just slightly clipped the roof. Nothing too major, although had I done that in a more advanced simulation, there would have been a part of my landing gear in someones garden

I want to see you land on the belly. LOL

You guys should try an approach at LOWI (takeoff in Vienna) - real weather conditions enabled. Use ATC to guide you. And dont take a small Cessna

The first time I tried I thought: "Who the hell is sitting in the tower giving me such advice?"
