dominique Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 You know what fighter pilots say of a war mission . A long boring flight with 5 minutes of terror at the end. Well, Alaska is great because the landscape is so majestic that you never get bored. The flight from PAJN to PAGY is a case in point. About the terror at the end though, what about a short runway in a narrow fjord with a hard turn on final ? With a jet ? I chose an oldie but a goodie, the Lotus Simulations L-39 I hadn't flown for a while. Made for FSX but she flies wonderfully in P3Dv3 because the developper was a perfectionist. No autopilot but she trims well. Only thing, she is a slippery girl at landing. Watch your speed knowing she takes her sweet time to spool up in case of need.

The weather was the ASN of the day Clear with a little wind from the SSW. Lucky day . Editing a movie is a ton of fun. I found that, few months back, after cranking out hundreds of screenshots over the years. Still have to look at improving the sound track though !

Good enough for me I suppose but I wish I could set markers on the timeline to move rushes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingleaf Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Great vid. Dominique. You "kissed" the runway perfectly. That is not an easy place to land. Well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Thank you ! There were rehearsals , some a little less perfect ! Actually I wanted to add a Go Around, an interesting proposition in Skagway, but the vid is already a little long.
