I ugh yea you read the topic right.... I was flying into an  airport behind gunnerman and I had it set to night, and I was on final approach all good and clean, Then, well there was a hill..... then some trees, I was doing roughly 73Knots when I thought I was clear and I touched down pretty good then my aircraft took a hard lurch left then it caught fire..... after that I got the 'Crash' Idication..... I think I clipped a tree coming in, here is the only pic I managed to get, we will still continue the flight!

Lining up about 2 miles out.... Now when I got to the runway it was completely dark and I had landing lights on.... last thing I saw was a dark runway and I heard the tires hitting, the plane went from 72 knots to about 48 in a matter of 20 seconds or so! Gunnerman said it looked like I had it!
...


Cheers, Sorry for lack of pics! I did manage to get out alive! Cheers, Gunny

PS: I take that back, found more pics and will post later!

Guess that means a little ABC gum, some Elmers glue, duct tape, and a bit of elbow grease for ya Wink

Or...you could fly the rest of the way with Gunnerman heh heh
