Bruce,

One BIG error... where was the crew meal???

Very cool!

The F/O must have had a prostate problem, in that he returned to the lav twice. ;D

Too bad the don't sink is there at the end. I got rid of it by simply going into the sounds in FSX and re-naming GPWS_dont_sink to GPWS_dont_sink_mute. All the other warnings work, and if I find I need this warning for some other plane I can just re-name it again.

This looks like the landing I saw in another of your videos. You had just a small amount of left wing low during the last 50 feet or so. That's all it takes to start a drift. Try using a bit of rudder and keep the wings level during the flare. Most pilots tend to land on "their" side of the runway. F/O's on the right, Captains on the left. This was something we worked on during training to insure a landing in the center of the runway.

I don't own a video camera, but the other day I tried a video with my cell phone camera to show you several autopilot approaches. The video from the phone is too poor to be of much use, so I'll just have to track down a good camera some day.

Lou
