Scorbing Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I think I was coming in to fast....LOL...Almost crashed that sucker!!! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1031143-landing-on-st-marteen-island-on-a-747-fsx-close-call/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Gibs Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Lol if you were coming in so fast, why not reduce your power? I could be wrong (can't see the display correctly) but it looks like you're coming in at full power. You should be aiming for a final approach speed of about 140-150 knots. Not 250-300 LOL Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1031143-landing-on-st-marteen-island-on-a-747-fsx-close-call/#findComment-594367323 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillionVoltss Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I was sick on the landing and intend to sue. Although, at least you managed to land it.

Allan Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 You were too far left, and, you touched down far too late on the runway. You're supposed to touch down within the first 10% of the runway, and thus, have 90% to come to a stop.
