What was that thread
That started with a steely fighter pilot report of a dashing mission and quickly unravelled to some hilarious spoofs of that said report by a C130 pilot, then a Cathay Captain, and so on.....Tried searching but cannot find it.

I don't understand that approach. Surely if you make a 90 left, then a 270 right, then you'll end up pointing the wrong way to land?

You could also do it the Irish way - a 360 and get the hell out of there.
