rob16584 42 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 After a slight delay, here is leg 16. Rather than fly this as multiple legs I opted to do this all at once. Even so it was still a very enjoyable flight for me as it was a rare midweek flight and I opted to use my JF/PSS 757. It had been lurking in the back of my hangar since I finished a review for it around this time last year, and I have really been missing out and cannot think of a reason why I havn't flown her for nearly a year! All shots are unedited photoshop has thrown a wobbler! What a shame we shall never see this livery again Taxing out to rwy01 Looks like a nice calm day ATC takes a nice shot of us blasting away, this girl climbs like a scolded cat! Climbing out to FL290 There are a few clouds below us, but the weather is calm up here Fantastic front office Passing over the mountains Cruising along at 550kts! Descending into LROP Great front seat for this turns Passing through the clouds Slowing down to 220kts as we beging to get closer to the airport ATC have vectored us in for the final approach Tower controller has the baton in sight It's out there somewhere All set Runway in sight, AP off Looking good for a smooth landing, very little wind here today so the passengers are happy Nice smooth landing, just a little off centre Slowing her down We had to taxi to the end of the runway as a cessna was blocking the only other turn off point Safe and secure, over to you SWVA7337 Link to post Share on other sites
