wain 879 Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 So after a hectic time with the business and the end of the financial year and all that I finally managed to test out the A320 and its upgrade to XP11 with a flight from Luxembourg to my home town of Bristol, doing most from memory all went well and all systems seemed to work ok, I did however come in a bit fast and sort of overshoot the runway, no pics of that though, managed to get back ok and the pax all gave me a round of applause on landing.... being guided to the runway... ready for departure though slightly off centre... leaving ELLX and the setting sun, soon be turning towards that.... we have made our climb and are now heading home.... over the south of England now... onoading at EGGD, seems we have some Soviet ground teams working here...... thanks for viewing....

brett 2,316 Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Not to be superstitious or anything but if you had lined up on the centerline the landing would have been fine. Great shots of the flight Wayne, always nice to fly and old friend. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Nicely done, bet your engineers had a good look at the tyres and brakes after the "Bolter!" 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 (edited) Nice set Wayne. Stuff happens...I almost posted a series of me saving the day, an aircraft, and a load of cargo after running short of fuel (pushing my luck) on my way to Henderson Nevada yesterday afternoon, took a bunch of screen shots on the way in...except...I didn't save it, I ran a bit Short of the runway instead....doh. The props feathered nicely though. Edited April 11, 2017 by Captain Coffee 1 Link to post Share on other sites

wain 879 Posted April 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 cheers guys.... we have a saying I brought to my family from the Army Planning & Preperation Prevents Piss Poor Performance... guess I should have took my own advice and slowed befroe descent, meaning I could have took the last turn better and landed correctly.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
brett 2,316 Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 I'm just glad I fly on a sim, I can't count the amount of times I have virtually killed or almost killed myself. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
