American Airlines Virtual

Looks like you were looking for a tail strike on landing there Bert, maybe we need to start equipping your birds with tail hooks :mrgreen: This was taken by a runway side video camera and a still shot taken out for evidence. The proof is in the picture. This was not edited like the previous images ...

I'm with you Jeff. Looked like a tail strike to me when I first looked at it as well.

Screenshot of 777 on final during sunset looks fake!!

Those shots of the JS41 and flying with Harold and Wayne are making me want to spend some money to get the PMDG version. Looks like a lot of fun (and some times headaches) to fly.

I did fly a couple of patterns in the stuff and had no problems getting up to about 240 kts. I didn't experiment to see what would happen if I "forgot" to turn on the anti-ice. :lol: As Harold found out during our GFI if you leave the prop anti-icing on your speed will be limited to about...

The prior version of FSINN that worked with FS9 automatically disable AI traffic when you went online. The new version that works with FSX does not do this. Don't know if it is an issue with FSX or with FSInn but it is documented (somewhere).

Happy birthday Walt. I aspire to be like you in the distant, distant future

Hope you had a great one...

Oh, and Harold, I noticed your name was conspicuously left out of the list...I wonder why

So Issac let's get you started on your Sr. Captain bid.

Leg #1
AA175
Depart - DFW at 10:10
Arrive - Tokyo (Narita)-RJAA at 13:05
Aircraft - 777
Dist. - 6,420mi

Enjoy your flight.

Issac did a great job with his checkride and is promoted to Senior Captain. The world is now his playground.

Congratulations Issac. I will start your traditional first Sr. Captain bid in another thread.

My first thought on this was the pilot landed long and with the snow on the runway brakes were no use. Had to totally depend on reverse thrust which takes more runway to stop. AA grabbing the black box makes me think they had this thought as well.

Great idea Wayne. I appreciate your efforts in continuing to put these together.

Congratulations to Wayne for achieving his Euro I Endorsement. He is now itching to work on his Euro II checkride.

That was always a pain having to manually create the FREQ when it was already right there on the screen. I totally agree on that one! Hope you're feeling better Ted. I'm getting better but can't sit at computer more that 30min at a time yet. So I've been grounded since before Christmas...missing th...

Pilots,
Help me provide a belated congratulations to Thomas Pryor for completing his checkride and becoming the newest jet pilot at DFW. Keep up the good work Thomas.

Wayne, the greatest thing about the improvements you made is the ability to automatically copy the bid to a FREQ. That was always a pain having to manually create the FREQ when it was already right there on the screen.

Thanks for your work on this. We do appreciate it.
