You must have had enough "seat of your pants" take-offs and landings to last a lifetime then! I've only done the first 4 legs but my heart rate took about a day to recover... ;)

Wait until you get to LSPM, thats the worst one on the tour. LFLJ is also bad, its a tiny runway with trees right infront of it. I over shot it lol.

Tim, is LSPM that tiny runway just behind the trees, and ends just before the foot of a huge cliff? Wow, that was an interesting approach!! My Cirrus SR20 struggled to land there.

Thats LFLJ, the world steapest runway in real life, those trees need to be chopped down!

Yes, I agree Tim: Something needs to be done about those trees! On a lesser scale, there are some inconvenient/scary trees in the way of an approach  into Aalborg (EKYT, I think) in Denmark. If you're on the glideslope, your gear could come very close to skimming some trees just short of the runway. Not as bad as LFLJ in my opinion, though ;)

By the way, very nice little moving picture there, Tim!!

Congratulations Tim!

Your "animation" picture has 70kb. I suggest you don't have it there for some time ... :) .. Thanks and sorry :)

Congratulations one more time, and what will be the next tour now ? :)
