February 14, 20215 yr This mountain scenery looks superb. #11 could be a vintage advertisement for B.O.A.C. I wonder if a Comet could have been landing in Paro? Harald Geyer Gründer der Messerschmitt Freunde Dresden v. V.

February 14, 20215 yr Trailblazer plane and great history,...thanks for showcasing, Bernd...! BTW, is not the 3rd recent visit of yours to Paro (Bhutan) airport...🙂....and, that approach/landing to Rwy has always appeared quite challenging to me, from my virtual viewpoint, I meant...🙂... Beautiful series of pictures, here,...!!
February 14, 20215 yr Author Thank you very much for your comments. 20 hours ago, HaraldG said: I wonder if a Comet could have been landing in Paro? No need to wonder, Harald. It's I think definitely not allowed! But is it possible? I think so, given the right circumstances. Remember that Interflug Il 62 that landed many years ago successfully on a short unpaved airstrip, as it was to be exhibited there in a small museum. Was it in Saxony? I can't remember. The Interflug pilot did an outstanding job. It's the beauty of our simulators that we can try to do things that would never be allowed in real life 🙂 7 hours ago, P_7878 said: BTW, is not the 3rd recent visit of yours to Paro (Bhutan) airport...🙂....and, that approach/landing to Rwy has always appeared quite challenging to me, from my virtual viewpoint, I meant...🙂.. Yes, P_7878, it's my third (successful) landing at Paro, all three with heavies. You have an amazing memory!! The first one was in a Tu 114, the second one in an Il 76 and now the Comet. It's challenging indeed, but we armchair pilots can be on occasion old AND bold 😄 Any attempt to stretch fuel is guaranteed to increase headwinds My specs: AMD Radeon RX6700XT, AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, 32GB RAM, 34" monitor, screen resolution: 2560x1080
