I said it wasn't pretty  Grin
But I made it on the deck...how I don't know  ???!
It is like the hook caught the cables while it was in the air and drag it out of the sky and slammed it on the deck!  Shocked

Broke my neck on this one. But it wasn't one of my prettier landings!

It looks like my attempts at carrier landings.

Anyone who voluntarily attempts to land an aircraft that size, going that fast on a deck that small should apply to their local hospital for a lobotomy. Grin

i think they class that as a good landing - the pilot walked away.

a great landing is one in which they can use the plane again.

How many time have a i heard that one lol  Grin.

Here are some instructions for flying a plane:


If you push the stick forward, they get bigger.
If you pull the stick back, the houses get smaller.
That is unless you pull the stick back too far, then they start getting bigger again.

nice pics, although it may help if your wings were fully forward and flaps down:)
then again who cares as long as you stay dry;)

lol my wings were swept out wide. The replay option swept the wings like that in the back position. it just replayed the flight path and angles I did!

But hey the last time I made a picture perfect landing I wasn't recording it! All I could do is veiw the instant replay and it would let me record the instant replay! It was like I glided in nice and smooth and swooped down for the landing! It was real Sweeeeeeet. I have pics of that landing somewhere in this section. if you click to veiw all my recent threads. You can find it and pull it up!
