I've moved.......again!!

Post by Nigel H-J »

Hi Guys,

Have now completely got over that nasty I had a few weeks ago and cannot get enough of this VA but unfortunately due to other tasks that need seeing to I have to limit myself to about 8-10hrs flying a week :sad:

Decided to move to Manchester as Heathrow, for some funny reason, takes a lot out of the computer as when flaring or even on the take-off roll, the frames stutter which is slightly annoying so.........decided to pack my bags and transfer myself up North and had a brilliant flight on the Trident 2 to Amsterdam and back.

Next flight scheduled Bank Holiday Monday. (I hope). :pray:

Regards Nigel.

Hi Nigel :smile:

Sadly mate, Manchester does this to me too which is a soddin shame. As a consequence, I don't fly into or out of there much these days. If it was like LHR, it wouldn't be so bad. I get the odd jump on approach but nothing bad at all.. until I turn off the runway that is!! :lol: At Manchester, it stutters all over the place.. especially on approach and at times, very close to the threshold making landings more miss than hit :shock:

Other folks with similar gear fly there with no problem so I don't know what the answer is.. only that my system isn't keen :think: Rwy 6 seems worse for some reason.

Dave, you could always put the visibility to quarter of a mile, doing it that way may stop them stutters and at the same time you can practise your instrument flying (manually of course)!! :lol: :lol:
