Tommy Burn from the 2nd Year told us you were seen with Billy Mayhew from the 3rd Year. We don't want to be seen in the playground with someone who plays with the 3rd year

Todays Sortie ....

Me and SM on a runway in Italy

SM apparently didn't have any trees on his screen while taxing

MF and I on the runway

Tour of Rome: The Colosseum

Tour of Rome: The Vatican + St Peters Square

Trying to formate on SM

SM's landing pt1

SM's landing pt2

Then took to my Typhoon, trying to formate on SM, but with my throttle at 1% I was still doing 300knots!!! :))

Formation landing

More formating attempts

Coming in for landing .... SM getting out of shape.

I managed what I set out to do, land on my reheats and stay there

SM landed sideways unfortunately =))

SM... not oly are you content to taxi the old girl through trees you then have to throw it on the ground during the landing, I can hear those poor dunlop tyres screaming in agony.. [-x

SM's turn.

My turn

nice choice of aircraft..

by **Stevieboy** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 10:35 pm

Inspired by the new competition I thought I'd see if I could get my only naval aircraft (Sea Hawk) on to the USS Kitty Hawk without arrestor gear.

Yep. Just about but had to steer off of the angled deck onto the forcastle deck to avoid a dip. Lots of rubber removed too.

Managed to get off again without catapult too. Looks like it's time to download/purchase a proper carrier and more carrier aircraft as this is rather addictive.

That took a while

Where is that?

by **Prometheus** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 1:41 am

I am probabley about to make a fool of myself but im thinking that the thin strip on the left is Mexico

by **Mayfly** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:08 am

agreed I would say it's Mexico Prometheus

by **RLN** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:59 am

The shuttle is probably above Acapulco going by the angle, and the strip of land is Baja California which is Mexico too.

by **Wedgy** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 10:04 am

I decided to have some fun with the USS Kitty Hawk too. 558 doing a touch and go :))

by **Stevieboy** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:58 pm

Wedgy. Your post brings back memories of the Falklands War when I were a lad. There was a newspaper (can't remember which) cartoon of two Argentine soldiers crouched in a bunker with bombs raining down on Stanley airfield from a Vulcan. One soldier shouts to the other "If this is the size of their aircraft then how big are their aircraft carriers?" :))

No. This one was silly.

Thought about it on approach but in the end discretion was the better part. [-x

If any one wants to try they're welcome.

A few for SM.

by **IanM** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 11:17 pm

I came in a bit low =))

by **RLN** » Wed Jan 21, 2009 12:22 am

You had 3 or 4 feet there. Plenty of room.

by **Wedgy** » Wed Jan 21, 2009 7:50 pm

Just a little flying today ... a new pilot

Xplumberlives formating on me in our Pipers

Then SM formating on me in some Vulcans (been a while)

SM should have some shots of me formating too

by **Mackrick** » Wed Jan 21, 2009 8:24 pm

Nice shots Wedgy

I flew to England at the start of the year, from LA, due to my grandmother's sad passing away. I love long-haul flights, and so I decided to reenact my flight back from Heathrow on FS2004, using Precision Manual's brilliant 747-400!

Departing Heathrow Terminal 5...

Rotate...

Leaving London behind...

Sunset...

It gets darker...

Up close and personal...

Making the turn towards Los Angeles, just above Las Vegas...

On Final...

Touchdown...

Waiting to be assigned a gate at LAX...

Done!
