Thanks much Guys, it is indeed a very scenic approach, the funny part is, I did the flight offline, so I removed an intersection from the ILS 19 approach, to suit the route I was flying, cause I was being lazy, but I ended up passing a mere 500 feet away from some mountains <_<

Those are all absolutely stunning screenshots, but the last one is simply the best. That mountain range in the background looks absolutely real.

Gorgeous shots! I love the mountains! :smile:

Great shots indeed. I just recently flew a United -800 NGX from KDEN to KJAC, and found I had to use flaps 40 and autobrakes set to MAX to handle the short runway, not to mention the steeper than normal 3 degree glideslope. KJAC runway 19 is a very interesting approach, considering I tried to adapt my flying to the real world noise abatement rules at the airport.

 

I'm not positive, but I believe 737s seldom use this airport, because of their high approach speeds. The real world airlines that do use KJAC use the 757 or A319 (American and United).

Also, when I flew out of KJAC to go to KORD (replicating another real world United flight, which actually uses the 757), I had to unload plenty of passenger/cargo weight just to meet the maximum weight limit for the -800 out of that short runway, and I used flaps 15 instead of the normal flaps 5. All this calculation for the additional flaps on landing and takeoff were courtesy of TOPCAT, and I can now say that KJAC is the shortest runway I have ever had the pleasure of using with the PMDG NGX!
