Talking 737 glide approach sim

This beats solitaire any day. You have a few seconds to put her down on the runway and are scored accordingly. Click on Take Off, then use left and right arrows. Click on the "swirl" to reset. Best I managed so far was a 3

Cool Who can I inflict this on now ...

That was good ... got any others?

First three approaches couldn't even hit the runway! Got the next one in sideways - "4", next one in straight - "7" (aww c'mon, that was a good'un). For the next 15 minutes "8"s, "7"s, "9"s. You get 1 more point for landing on the left than you do on the right - is this some sort of jibe at F/O landings?!?

Was starting to wonder if you lose points for flying over a populated area below 1000' (or 100 Flughöhe) and finally got a "10" - it's a picky little s**t of a thing.

Talking Mmmmmmmm

Why oh why did I click onto prune???

That is adictive but I managed to click the X and escape with a mighty 4 (followed by a few 0's)

Makes you wonder how the Garuda lads did it at night in heavy rain into a river with no fatalities (1 fatality on evacuation).

10?? How? After great effort I managed a 9. For a while I wondered if it was possible at all!

Thanks Boomerang, excellent humour to break the computer monotony.
