I was attempting one of "Doherty's Difficult and Dangerous Approaches" in the default Learjet........ Volume 6, Timor Leste when I botched it bad. Seemed simple until about 2000 MSL. Watch the wind shear and then really strong uneven gusting cross winds from about there to ground level.

Got suddenly blown off centerline....then over corrected to the left...... then I "parked it" when a wind gust stopped, I again overcorrected and hit the tail down hard in a slight stall. (It's in "Payware" cause the engine mess back there is payware.)

Some of these flights he packages up are a bear Wink

best,

Hey John,

I noticed you have been posting some shots recently. Glad to see you are getting some enjoyment with the Sim despite all the frustrations associated with your system!

Nice shot! Better luck next time. The default Lear is probably the hardest default aircraft to fly period let alone attempting to fly it in that weather situation. You are a brave man! Tongue
