In the 744 sim I tried to beat that record short t/o, circuit and landing time set by an ex-red arrow/VS guy (45 secs airborne or something)

I rotated, thought I was well clear of the ground and whacked on a load of bank

Game over... caught a wing tip and cartwheeled in. I thought - 'no way'; but was assured it was so.

Its a wingy beast - I got taught a lesson there.
