And Dan4th, the Millennium Falcon has every characteristic of a Harrier as far as flight controls are concerned :))

No Guts, No Glory, TDC......

But if you crash you don't have to post it
up here -- unless you want the "Best Crash"
Award....

I think Prometheus has already won the "Too
Much Aircraft, Not Enuff Helipad" Award!

Wonder if the rig is blow-upable?????

you need some screen-capture programme, as saving it in FSX isn't a video as such

you'd have to replay it in FSX and then use something like the software that Wedgy and i have...

look at this thread Tom.com

thanks, uploading now

here you are

Video shows approach and landing and although it looks as though I NEARLY crashed I didn't.
Where it look as though I have stopped, I was going backwards.



Do you think i could land a 747 on it if i managed to stall it and kind of crash?

:ymapplause: well done Tom.com :ymapplause:

little tip though - for screenshots, you don't need to use the "PrtSc" print screen button - just press "V" and FSX takes a picture for you!

you can then find them in C-drive - your name - "pictures" then "Flight Simulator X Files" - already there as .bmp files ;)

I wonder if it's the first?

Nicely Done!

You know, it looks like there's room for
two or more Harriers on that pad.

Hmmmmmm??????
