Have you ever wondered what would happen if you tried to land a 737 with 1 hand as you eat your tea and watch the telly... Shocked

what you are about to see is an act of carelessness and a plane only just surviving the wrath of the 'not paying attention' pilot.

Aaah what a lovely scene, paying attention here and loving the scenery.

Approaching the runway now (ill have to concentrate) ... ooohh look, the Newcastle United Footbal Highlights are on..

mmmm, i fancy some food....dum dee dum (other noises made whilst preparing food)..... yum yum, food (noises made whilst eating) oh, that runway came fast

and now, check out this skid. i nevver knew that aircraft were fitted with anti-roll kits... Cheesy

I hope my misfortunes and tendancy to not pay attention brings a smile to your face

until next time
ta ta.

That's a 737? What happened to the engines? I would have called that an Airbus A320. Shows how much I know...

one question...at first i thought these shots were too big (>800x600), but i see Ozzy replied to this thread and didn't say a thing about it. since yesterdag i have a new TFT monitor and everything is different around here. are these shots too big or is it my new screen i'm not used to? Wink

had to say something about eating tea. You brits are strange. I understand that your beer is so thick that you have to eat it, I never realised the tea was the same way. I'll have to try it Grin

Hmpph... Serves me right for not being a bus driver. But then, I'll bet not every bus driver can tell a MkIX Spitfire from a Mk XIV at a glance either so it evens out. Cheesy

Great pics, don't worry, my attention span lasts only 1.25 seconds. Fell asleep in a 48 minute class twice last Thursday, but it was English class.
