  1. Hi Gregg!

    Yes, this was an interesting one. Usually I aim to make one take while recording flying.

    Attempt 1)  I blew a tire before coming to the end of the runway and stopped on the beach.

    Attempt 2) I came off the end of the runway and injured several holiday makers, I floated too much in the flare as I was trying not to burst tires.

    Attempt 3) As I came in, I dumped all the flaps just before the flair in order to put the aircraft down hard and early. It worked!

    In hindsight I should have put on a 50 knot headwind and lighten the aircraft in-order to make it easier. I only had a 10 knot headwind in the video.

    I've also played around with landing a 737 in St Barts before in the past, practise makes perfect! 

    Auto-brakes set at high, full reverse thrust.

    Give it a try! Its fun! 

  2. Happy week-end all,

    Logan Air fly to and from Sumburgh Airport (Scotland) in the Saab s340.

    I thought it would be a nice touch to mach up Orbx True Earth North and Orbx Sumburgh Airport with the LoganAir Saab s430 by Carenado.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    Enjoy!
