olderndirt Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 #3 - that Mallard is using his webbed feet to handle a tricky crosswind on ice while his head, straight up, reveals excellent directional control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adambar Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 A of course, I don't ever remember having a bad flight, but then again I don't remember much of anything nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Q Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Well, all of them. Depends. A) substitute my Mooney for the illustrated aircraft, and that represents most of my flights. Boring, maybe, but very satisfying. However!! That's me when my yoke wears out. I use the CH yoke. I like it, responsive and accurate, but not very long lived. Relatively inexpensive, but I get about three or four years out of one, then ALL of my landings look like B). C) Me. Today!!! Flew into Farmington Four Corners (NM) (KFMN) with a stiff cross wind. Runway? What runway? You mean this airport doesn't have a turf runway? Doesn't it run parallel to Rwy 25? No? Yoke right, rudder left! Land on the centerline? Yeah right. What centerline? Better be a duck! Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuFun Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Of course it's C... we know how to handle slippery services! "D6" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifejogger Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 It depends on what plane I am flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wain71 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 a lot of C lately, unless it's an A320 or 737 then the systems help me look reasonably good.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Definitely "C" but I usually "walk away" so I take it as a good landing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boetie Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 That's me in "C". Always pushing the rudder pedals the wrong way for a crosswind landing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Try using the rudder/steering pedals in MSFS2020!! They barely work when taxiing however are way too sensitive when landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvdboomen Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Oh yes, definitely C. On 2/20/2021 at 12:33 AM, Matt McGee said: Warning: This will get you into trouble in real life! I have planned doing that myself too with a little less agile aircraft just because of my C choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
