Have many times considered making a video where I do a juicy approach. Too bad here in Europe we don't have alot of them, but things can get a little interesting in the Alps though  
Video starts at downwind leg, just before making a right 180 degree turn to interecept the runway heading for 08. Flaps at 30, gear down and autobrakes set at 3. Anything more than that is totally unnecessary for this runway. I will select flaps 40 rather late because the added drag is so great.

Weather was very kind only light turbulence and a slight wind (091/4). I managed to land this aircraft just before the mist started to roll in from the east. I was very lucky the weather permitted me to do this, and it's all visual (no autopilot)

The video is not edited, and there are no exterior shots, just cockpit and wingview  
Oh and I apologize for the bad quality, I'm not really Oliver Stone of FS movies...

Video size is 28mb approx.

    Wow, that took forever to download on a cable modem... but very very nice video. You have such a smoothe computer. No sputters or freezes. Interesting airport, way out in the booneys. And for as long as you turned, I was surprised that you haven't a full 360 turn....   You really should have some exterior shots if you make another vid, and possibly the cabin. Exterior would be better though. 

What did you use to create the video?  I am in the process of creating some right now using a digital camera but after all the conversions I lose a lot of quality.

WOW...Awesome...do you plan on making any more preferablly cockpit videos???

That place in Spain seems to be a pretty popular popular approach ...I think it is called Finchal
  .

...or something like that...

Well TNCM is beautiful and all, but hardly as challenging as Funchal (which I'm considering to shoot)

Nexus what are your specs your system just flows with flight simulator so perfectly it has to be clocked.....

Nexus I don't understand how you could own so much $$$$$$$ on that computer that has to have sot a few G's (grands of $)....I wish I had a sytem like that...Plus you are going to become a pilot man that has go to be a lot of money

Judging from the video, my computer handles FS just about as well as yours.  I too have a slight ground texture stuttering "issue", especially when running the instant replay.  I too am stumped.  It's almost like the ground catches a "snag" before slipping back into place.  Sounds much worse than it actually is when described, but its an annoyance nonetheless.

Where did you host the video?  I am having issues with finding places to host my videos and that is all that keeps me from posting them at this point.    ???

Silver1, my co-worker studies at the university so he hosts the file on the unviersity server 

I know some, but they mostly has a 20mb limit.
I'm thinking about buying webspace so I can upload whatever I want there...=/

with your budget I could threw in an Athlon 64 FX, which basically whoops my A64 3200+ pretty good...

I always feel you get ripped off when buying from such websites. don't know where you live but here in Sweden I know some pretty good dealers (my brother is in the comp. business), and they'll get it for me, reduce the amount of middle hands and the price becomes fairly reasonable.

Newegg has good prices, so i wouldn't worry, also I calculated the current dollar compared to my currency, and it's not as bad a I thought. The dollar has really plummeted lately here (going from a multiplier of 9 to 7...)

Let us know when you get the system running - if you have the time...I was like a child when I pushed the power button for the 1st time
