i guess you know where this is...yep, TNCM...but this time, the weather was very very bad: heavy rains, view less than 8Nm and with 35kts crosswind! of course, Captain Bones landed this heavy tri-jet smooth without any problems on the short runway of TNCM...enjoy

Well done, Ken, these are VERY good shots!
My favorites are 1,6 and 8.
#7: a nosegear bounce?

You know, I often used to fly around St.Maarten because of the approach in FS2k and 2k2. Now finally, MS put a lot of work in the Island and see how nice it looks! I am happy that it appeals to more people now. It is well deserved, the island is beautiful.

well guys, first of all the pics aren't in the correct order, i know that...i didn't do a go-around, i never need a second chance!  Grin

Jan Willem, i guess you mean the smoke...not a nose gear bounce but just something with the replay i think...
i also used this field in FS2002, but now it's much more fun. although MS forgot one small thing: a fence! that would make it much more realistic!  Wink

Yeah, now that you mention that, the fence IS missing.
Also, no topless people...  Undecided
Ah well, maybe when MS finally gets liberal. (yeah right!)
