What a miserable morning takeoff!

[HighBypass 2,339]

What a snowstorm! 20+kt winds (slightly crosswind) gusting to over 40! The stalwart Ilyushin is just the plane to try and bully itself into the air 

 

 

Morning takeoff? Yes...From Station Nord in Greenland (BGNO) at about 10 am...

You need to swing your landing and taxi lights into position so you can see where you are going......and also get rid of the light splash on the fuselage that comes from nowhere.  :rolleyes:

I would love to, but not sure where to begin.   I don't think there's a command to position the landing lights. The tail logo lights appear to be linked to the nav light switch too.

Mark, I had such weather at approach to Anadyr, Russia, these days. Furthermore, for any reason the elevator of my Tu-134 was blocked. (Maybe iced - that would be a great simulation then.) I had to stop that flight, and if this wasn't a simulator, ii would have been a hull loss then. That's the northern weather!

Interesting story Harald! Thank you.
