Ah Haa Haa! As we speak the RAF are now having there Tristars moded by upgrading to a full glass flt deck, but we still keep the Air Eng (The RAF never do a job properly, if they wanted a dog they would buy a cat and mod it!) :roll: . I've seen the plans and photos etc and all looks very cool
On the not being able to 'stop it' problem, I have never been able to get the spoilers to work in AGS (Auto ground spoilers) as soon as the thing hits the deck. That would certainly help you stop in time :shock:
If the Army was ment to fly god would have painted the sky green!
Glad you got it sorted in the end and no time wasted at all. There is always the likelihood of something interesting turning up out of one of these threads and we've not done badly out of this one
Sorry Buff, only just got to the thread. Never had much problem with the L1011, but most of the time I have had the autothrottle engaged until the later stages of descent. Once disengaged I haven't had any problems.
Onwards and Upwards!!!!!!!!
Jetty!
If God had of meant us to fly, he would have given us wings! He did, it's called an aeroplane!
