OK folks how many here plan on simming this? I'll give it a go in my old RFP 747-200.It's times like these I wish I had bought the PMDG.
OK Landing was no big deal, but perhaps the 200 is under powered I could not get off the ground. Barely got to 120kts by the end of the runway on 30% fuel load.

Re: Get out of that one...
Reminds me of the time when at RAF Syerston some chap in a Cessna lands on the runway, turns left off the runway over live winch cables and wonders why a load of RAF yellow defenders pounce on him!!! He was meant to be landing at Langar 9 miles to the south!

I just got the default 744 out of there on 30% fuel and the default load no problem. Gad knows where I landed but it was only up the road. Must be a problem in that part of the world

Didn't know those actual details, Chris, but as I said, how could it happen these days?
I spoke to the air controller who was talking down that 707.
He was increasingly concerned that he wasn't sighting the Boeing, but the pilot apparently misread the light pattern on a gasometer, and was convinced that he was on course.
You'd think that GPS and improved tracking would have eliminated all that by now. Just goes to show.

Don't forget the C-17 that landed at a light airfield in the US a little while ago
