Hey, buedi, I use the VASI or PAPI lights religiously(rwy 4 at JFK doesn't have them for some odd reason). It seems at ITO they switch all of a sudden to 4 white and suddenly you're too high at the rwy threshold. I think weird things happen at ITO! First ATC practically runs you into that snow covered mountain. Then they clear you from 20000 down to 12000 and vector you to intercept the ILS. You have to descend rapidly which makes it hard to slow down and watch the flap speeds. Then I missed the localizer on the first attempt. Of course piloting has something to do with all that--- no doubt! But that's what makes it fun too! Am going to try Iquitos to Quito in the default 737-800 and see what gives.

Mark --- You are INDEED a sim junkie!! Between all the sim time and CS Forum time you can't possibly be still working! Try this Quito approach from Iquitos, Peru. It's under 400 miles. I'm going to try it one more time in the 707 and also with the default 737. (have to stay off the bike for a few days--- gas is $3.70 a gallon)
