Unhappy When you mess up an approach or landing.

I have found through experience that it is much better to get the power back on, configure my aircraft to be a flying machine again, point the nose up.... have a beer... then work out where you are relative to where you wanted to land, then calm yourself and try again.

Everytime I tried to land when it "didn't look right" I crashed.......

Now subtract the beer, Is that not the way real pilots should do it?

Sadly true, pity the Gulf Air crew didn't read your post, or was this pointed in that direction?. Beware the Black Hole!.

I am talking FS2000 not real aircraft....

Get altitude, clean it up and try again. (and don't try a tight turn to get back to the airport too soon.... fly away a few minutes...)

FS 2000 sux !
I need to buy a new computer (despite the fact that my computer meets the minimum requirements !) in order to mess around with it.
Try PS1 ! Now THAT'S a FS you can run on any computer and (in my case) learn a thing or two.

Totally agree with you Bokkerijder. Have PS1.3, though can't sort out the sound. Any suggestions??

Sorry PCav8or, I don't have PS 1.13, yet !
I've flown it a few times at my cousins place and I think it's great. He just got the update, so I'll ask my cousin and let you know.
