Jack Sawyer Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 This flight is in the PMDG NGX. AS4 on, had some nice thunderstorms before approach. Used all SIDs & STARs. The island of Samos to LDDU. Something like a 37kt crosswind on final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 A challenging landing well executed Jack. I like the colours on your 737 as well as the great scenery. Thanks for taking us along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Martyn, I chose this livery at random, never used it before so was startled to see it was an African airline. I can pretend because it's only a sim and not real life.

As for the livery, I didn't even know what it would look like, it was simply one that I didn't have in PFPX or had flown before. And Africa will be nice, a day one buy.

I did some research about C and F temperature scales and found out that only in US and a few other smaller countries use F, which I didn't know Of course you are most comfortable to the system you are used to: If you're an American and you've ever had a conversation with someone from another country about the weather, you've probably been a little confused when he or she says that the afternoon temperature is a nice 21 degrees. To you, that might sound like a chilly winter day, but to them, it's a pleasantly warm springtime temperature. That's because virtually every other country in the rest of the world uses the Celsius temperature scale, part of the metric system, which denotes the temperature at which water freezes as 0 degrees, and the temperature at which it boils as 100 degrees. But the U.S. and a few other holdouts – the Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, Belize and Palau – cling to the Fahrenheit scale, in which water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. That means that the 21 degrees C temperature that we previously mentioned is the equivalent of a balmy 70 degrees F in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like F and now have a free converter on my iPhone. I for one, personally, like our system of Fahrenheit, miles per hour, pounds, and all that good stuff.
