Good job! Was that an ILS approach or did you glide that bird in yourself?!  Smiley

No I was a chicken and did the Cat I ILS which brings you down to 50' AGL.  That wind was jumping from anywhere from 32kts to 46kts

Great Shots!  A very nice landing, even if it is by the instruments.  I like the fog and the panel shot. 

I have to ask:
 Where is the plane and panel from?  I am especially interested by the panel, but if you know of some good A320 designer site, that would be much appreciated!

Hi, Thanx for the nice words.  It plane is for Project Airbus a320,  and the panel is Mike Stone's airbus_A3202k2vID.zip.  Both are fs2002 but work great and are fs2004 quality in fs2004.

Are sure you mean CAT 1?

Sorry your right I meant CAT III.  Now that I look at Norfolk, it doesn't have a CAT III so I guess I broke minimums.  OPPS! Tongue I didn't become visual until about 100' because of the 1/8sm fog.
