Nice little flight in my B-17 back from De Kooy airfield in Holland to RAF Woodbridge in the UK. Had to use up all the runway at De Kooy to take off and left my payload there, I barely landed the damn thing when I arrived so I figured taking off would be touch and go...it was. :haha:
Nice calm flight across the North Sea, bit of turbulence here and there. Arrived over the Suffolk coast and couldn't find RAF Woodbridge, then realised the stupid sim hadn't loaded it in, corrected that and then wheeled around for an approach. Came in a bit too low and bounced merrily down the runway, wrecking the tailwheel and damaging the landing gear motor in the process. My second man suggested I do some touch and gos before our next landing...I think I might take him up on the offer. Anyway, safe and sound tucked up at RAF Woodbridge: http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/1373/b17wood.jpg |

We seem to think similar things Tarjak. :salute: It's a lovely day out there today, so as I was walking back from down the town I decided to take the Spitfire out for a flight. It seems I was not alone in this decision as shortly after I thought this Carolyn Grace's Mk IX Spitfire flew overhead. :rock:
Anyway, like her Spitfire I decided to take off from Bentwaters. Unlike her Spitfire, I can take off but struggle to land her...as you will see. http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/4...fireflight.jpg A beautiful day, beautiful sky and a beautiful aircraft, who could ask for more? http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/2594/wince.jpg Well...a competent pilot would perhaps help... http://img816.imageshack.us/img816/3364/ermg.jpg :doh: |
At least you've got good balance :O:

Might help if you use some flaps.
