Looks like a fairly hard landing for a model plane, Lucky it is not a real plane.

Microsoft have done a good job on their simulators. Hardly realistic though.

A340 landing

Has anyone seen the landing videos in You Tube ? There's a Virgin A340 cockpit video as it was doing an approach and landing on Sydney's 16R.

Search for "Landing at Sydney Airport "... you might need to let it buffer though and re-run the video again.

Very nice......

Oh to have Broadband and a few hours to kill!! but alas I have measely dial up and a 16th century artifact, also known as the Super star series KTX.....

I did manage to weasel some high speed once and Youtube.com has heaps of videos of all types of planes, commercial and otherwise. I'm amazed at the approaches to the airport right next to the beach, europe somewhere. I am promoting it, yes because it is a great way to waste time, but unfortunately no, I did'nt get a slice of the $2.5billion dollar pie...

I've flown over 500 combat missions in my life and I've been shot down in every single one of em. Come to think of it, I've never landed a God damn plane in my life! And i ain't about to start now!
