TigerTigerM Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Only 8,000' of runway available after a tricky approach resulted in a heavy landing at LIEO for this JF Tristar. May have gone better had I, (a), turned the lights on, (b) not tried to land at minimum landing speed - I find with the Tristar that it starts to drift around when its in the 160 kia range & everything is hanging off the trailing edge. I think I need to 'drive' it in as opposed to trying to 'float' it onto the runway. TTM (P3D v4.5.13) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Well, you managed to land at least. And one might even be able to use the plane afterwards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifejogger Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Nice shots of the landing looked okay to me. But then I know nothing about landing Airliners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Nice shots, an L-10 can be landed like any other airliner. Did you make sure your landing V speed was correct? +5 or more knots? I've been in many L-10 real life landings in the cockpit on test flights and the landings were always so smooth you could barely tell you hit the runway.

VH-KDK Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Been there, done that and still do it today. Excellent images of this wonderful old plane and I knew someone on here would be ready to give you some useful advise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
