adambar Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Well Jack, you almost swooped a little to much on that landing. Super set anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifejogger Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Nice shots Jack!!!!!!!!! On that third from the last shot I thought maybe you were going around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Fantastic views Jack and I like the u/c images, very different. I was expecting a loop with you coming out of it to make a perfect touch down. Oh well maybe next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackburnBuccaneer Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Nice shots. It is a good job you were only flying round the block, 16% Fuel is not going to last long in that 777! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could do a loop but I would have to shut off the flight control switches on the overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I had only short fuel so I had to get back on the ground, this was just another test, one, of the new livery and two to see if KIDA could handle a 777.

Wakashi Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 WHAT a takeoff and a spectacular landing in that Idaho cóndor Jack! I was expecting maybe a somewhat smaller bird say with a 10’ wingspan and scaly talons, not rubber ones! Looks like you nailed your test once more, good on ya!

Thanks Roger, I know some people are really fascinated by the gear retraction so I did that for them. And I know this isn't realistic but you know me, I have to be goofy sometimes.

Captain Lars Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Well, what to say... maybe I should lock the keys away? Your excellent gear retraction shots cannot compensate for your faulty flap setting, tailstrike and hard landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I hope he doesn't mind that I have it. I love these big jets, I fly them occasionally and someday I'll make a long flight. For example, I was going to fly from Honolulu to Sydney in the 747 today but didn't have time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do love them too 747 & 777 Also like the 340 & 380 but don't fly them much except the Iberia one, it is gorgeous.

Rodger Pettichord Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Jack, I really loved the unusual angle shots of takeoffs and landings. I could hear the rumbles and roars and whines and howls as engines and flaps and gear all did their things in those concentrated moments. Very enjoyable. Thanks!
