A bit like an aircraft carrier without the catapult, arrester gear or ability to turn into wind

Does anyone know where that is? It'd be interesting to try it in FS.

HI all,
It's Saba in the Netherlands Antilles. Unless you have the FlyTampa St.Maarten add-on or this from AVSIM it doesn't quite look like the video in FS.
Rgds,
Colin

Nice one Nigel. I always look at the associated clips alongside, who needs a runway anyway ? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_8wmZ6hhpg8
Sorry, I didn't want to hijack the thread but they are sort of linked.

It demonstrates the L bit of STOL but I'd like to see it try the TO bit on that tiny patch of ground.RAF_Quantum wrote:Nice one Nigel. I always look at the associated clips alongside, who needs a runway anyway ? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_8wmZ6hhpg8

That second clip is impressive :o but there is a very strong wind blowing that could well make it almost VTOL

No problem John....at work at the mo, but will take a look at your link tomorrow.Sorry, I didn't want to hijack the thread but they are sort of linked
Just a thought, if it rains and the aircraft starts aquaplaning late on the landing run.....What the hell would you do? :o
Chris, the T/O is somewhere on You Tube but cannot link it until tomorrow unless some-one can find it before then.
Regards Nigel.
