I got Wings of Power for christmas, but haven't put alot of time into it  Undecided  I decided to fly the B-29 from Guam to Hiroshima Int.  But it was a 6 hour trip...So I simulated and engine cutout...enigines to be precise Roll Eyes total flight time was about 1.7 hours.

Everythings well and good.

Safe in Saipen..after a shocker of a landing  Embarrassed, missed calculated the approach Smiley

Good fun.

More likely due to the fact that I over compensated and was at about 1500' on final...
