February 14, 20179 yr Uh, had a 737 below him and landed on a taxiway by mistake. Wonder if he will get charged and fined for landing on a taxiway. http://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/harrison-ford-has-incident-passenger-plane-airport-n720826 Think he needs more training with FSX or P3D and ProATC-X.... :smile: Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!

February 14, 20179 yr Bad enough that he landed on a taxiway but the fact that he went over a passenger airliner would lead me to believe he'll be riding in the back of the plane for the foreseeable future.

February 14, 20179 yr Didn't he crash in his plane some time ago? Maybe it's time he realize he's getting to old for this s..t, as a fellow actor said in a movie :-) Jorn Lundtoft I don't always stop and look at airplanes.........Oh wait, Yes I do.

February 14, 20179 yr I just love the media reports. The article references a previous accident where he crash landed on a golf course after loosing the engine. An eye witness says how he saved numerous lives by rerouting the plane to crash on the golf course rather than on a group of houses. Yea like most people would aim for the houses and not the nice open golf course when trying to crash land. Self preservation helps a lot in saving lives on the ground. Yet the media have to portray him as a hero. Always makes me cringe to read these reports.
February 15, 20179 yr You notice how he is always alone when flying....just saying :wink: LOL. I bet he could get on Pilot Edge for free. Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane. A great landing is when you can reuse it." i9 64GB RAM, GTX-5090
February 15, 20179 yr solo, it was a benign joke c'mon... :smile: I swear, one day day they'll make a movie about this old chap, he survives more crash landings than Indiana Jones himself... All puns intended. Hmm.. I wonder who'll play title character. Really, who could Indiana Jones Indiana Jones. FreeMeshX Global & P3D Tweak Assistant (PTA) plus a bit of orbx magic

February 15, 20179 yr All of my friends tell their passengers that if they lose an engine or for any reason have to go in, and it's into tree's or on a playground full of kids that they are less important than the kids and are landing in the trees.

February 15, 20179 yr He was doing the Kessel Run, trying to beat 12 Parsecs, a 737 got in the way Matthew Kane I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me
February 15, 20179 yr http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38976965 How has he retained his license that age ? Are the Aviation rules different in the US or can one have a license even at his age ? Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus
