Dropped below cloudbase to see the Island ahead only slightly off course Wink

Got over the threashold of Rwy31 only to be hit by several strong gusts... I managed to recover and go around. Shocked

The second approach and landing where fine and I finally discharged my passengers green and wobbly legged to go about their buisness. Undecided

There did you get that plane? I really need something to replace the Quantas plane that I have flying that route at the moment in my FS. Then I might have to see what I can do about getting that helicopter service going... Grin

I thought this was going to be about the REAL Vomit Comet. NASA has a plane (a KC-135, I think) that is specially designed to acclimate astronauts to weightless environments. They take the thing up and put it into a steep dive to get the effect. You can guess why it got it's nickname...

Here's a cool story on it:

Thats a nice plane, and I love the paint job on it. Thats neat too to see the seats in the aircraft, with the passenger door open.
