April 13, 201214 yr Commercial Member Ok, I know I should be working but I logged into my computer at home and posted a few more shots from my quick flights today.

April 13, 201214 yr you landed on the wrong side?! RoyalSkies.CO.UK Youtube Vidz !My website will be back soon with new paints and videos!

April 13, 201214 yr you landed on the wrong side?! That's what I would go for as a runway, less obstructions and the fact that you have all the thrust helping you to make that turn wouldn't be such a bad thing. However, considering that you have a huge thrust producer called a turbine engine, I would have stayed in the air for awhile and gone through my options before I even attempted to land at that airport. You only get one shot and an airport with that many mountains around it and the fact that it has an extremely short runway, going back to TNCM would be my first choice provided he wasn't low on fuel.
