I was getting ready to jump out but managed to go down a few gears made a hell of a noise got to the bottom and my brakes where nearly on fire . that taught me a lesson if I go up a mountain in 3 or 2 gear I come down the same . I never had problems after that regards EMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Martyn I am very pleased you liked my set of shots from my flight and also my photos of a few of my trucks I have driven over the years I also had the Volvo F10 in one of my other load of shots that was my own and a trailer that I had for 2 years and after that I had a Renault 340 with a lift axel my own for 2 years so I had about 4 years of being a owner driver going to Spain mainly and Italy sometimes but nearly always Spain I knew every inc of the road . Well with my mishap coming down the mountain it Taught me a good lesson if I went up a mountain in 3 or 2 gear I would come down the same and use the exhauster brake regards EMM https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_brake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Amazing scenery, I don't see how Orbx could possibly improve it. And those real photos Stewart, very cool!

So I am not the only one then wondering just where the time has gone Jack. I was just thinking that this September would be 60 years since I started school. I remember in the 70s thinking how old I was getting when I could remember things that happened 20 years ago. Isn't it great to see EMM's RL images from the past too.
