..I must admit, you Blokes leave me out in the cold when it comes to (Multiplayer) flying Passenger Jets....especially on short Hops!

Trying to land a Jumbo 777 in a hole in the ground, in deepest, darkest Colombia, is way beyond my capabilities....

...even on a nice day!... Roll Eyes...!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...and the very occasional Default Learjet 45... Roll Eyes...!

.... Grin....!

I'll try to get my work done, but will be having a tough time.  I'll be flying on just autopilot trim and throttle because my new din cable was the wrong one and another won't be in for a week.Roll Eyes.


I need to learn autoland Grin

That's why I like the default 737. Just pretend she's a rather large Cessna with twin jets.  Wink

Very stable and predictable at slow speeds, and you would be amazed at the places you can land one  Cheesy. Oh, and I never have to worry about anyone else seeing what I am.

Here is a video that shows how little runway a 737 classic actually needs to stop.
