You got any screenshots of the Panel in action? I also see you have a fair few add-ons judging by the amount of developers on your task bar. ;)

Nice plane

The first post almost reads as code to a none Airport ID knower :P

I do like FS, but I tend to stick to lite Twin Engine Craft that I can nip around the terrain and sights. Anything that means all you see is the plane and ooodles of sky doesnt take my fancy. Hence why I prefer trainsims, theres more to see than the train. Which means I dont run US routes :P

Try EGLL-WSSS real time in 744 then ;)

Pain they are as you got to keep changing the fuel pumps every so often round but with the 340 you can sleep until you arrive basically.

Pictures from a recent landing at Heathrow. Fog wasn't as bad today so I thought I would have a Manual Landing. The problem was my FMS system was set at 999 Cost Index meaning it wants to speeds rather than take it's time.

So I ended up touching down at around 200 knots in my 772 :silent: Full Reverse and Brakes stopped me, just in time. :mrgreen: Any landing is a good one!

Not my fault! I didn't fly it online because I've been having problems with the 772 recently, AP wasn't working correctly. I flew it using FS "Real Weather" and it updated every 15 minutes but as I was landing the whole thing refreshed and the QNH. Things were moving to fast for me to notice afterwards!

Transatlantic tomorrow? Interesting! I'll see what I'm doing tomorrow. :)
