Title: Re: Thrilling action with the 737 Post by CoolP on Aug 20th, 2012 at 8:11pm
I saw that house. Must be a very lonely but noise resistant person living there. :-?
Here's how my approach worked out. Lots of NDB navigation from BIKF. Descent went fine, few clouds, no icing trouble. Altitude at RE NDB was fine and I caught the localizer with the HDG select as I think the AP is a bit sluggish at times. Descending on the localizer track, hazard beacon came up, waited for that 258° bearing and started the visual part. Good weather, so what could possibly happen? FO Erm, looks pretty tight going into that valley. Captain Don't worry, I got this. FO Ok. Captain Flaps 40, we'll stick to Vref plus 10. FO Erm, it still looks pretty tight. Captain I said, I got this! Later, a bit more into the valley. Captain Geezus, it looks pretty tight! :o You should have told me! FO :-? Captain It was an honour flying with you. FO What!?! What do you mean 'was'? -End of transcript- :-/ It looks easy on the videos, but I had to keep at least 140kts and the turn was a turn only FSX allows for. :D Nice rw video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv_c6vA8DXE |
