Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Got to reach to end of runway because of ultra icy on runway pavement which does not permit deep braking or otherwise the plane will spin around

Thank you for viewing.  Stay tuned for next exciting flight.

Hi Aharon

Nice shots!!  Very realistic when compared to my foggy memory of several hundred landings in BIKF when I was stationed there with Navy Patrol Squadron VP49.

VP49P3,

I am very glad that you agree with my screenshots as being realistic and I am in awe as well as am impressed that you flew few hundred flights into BIKF.

Regards,

Aharon
