Flying the B1900D back to its Hub...
« on: September 07, 2006, 02:19:39 pm »
After flying a B1900D from KATL to Montgomery Regional KMGM on PP, i thought the return flight would be just as easy, didnt expect bad weather:s

Climbing to today's cruise altitude FL120...

Keep getting the rising Sun in my eye...

Cruising towards KATL, boring scenery


Couldn't take any pictures of landing, lots of turbulence on approach, quite bad visibility and  during landing, couldnt see much, FS crashes during long replays.

I had to pull out Ivap to warn some other pilots who just connected as I wrote on UNICOM that I was landing before they came online.

Taxiing to the gate, just how dark the sky is, visibility is now more than what i had during landing...

Shut down at gate...


I used manual ILS approach, cant rely on my Autopilot in these conditions (maybe yes but I don't), FSP copilot didn't count down the altitude, had to keep an eye on the VSI.

Here is my FSP report;D

Nice pics, Javier. Well done, taking into account the weather and that small aircraft which performance might have been influenced by the strong wind.

I expect to fly with you online soon and see how you do it!;)

ah, you think that's something? You should have seen the amazing landing he did while accompanying me on the tour of sweden. One of the legs had winds at 38 knots (I think) and we were both in little cessnas! I struggled trying to find the ILS, then on landing, it went smooth, but I was in a weird position, and I could have done it so much better. Javier landed perfectly, hovered above the runway at a weird angle, and then quicly turned to line up and landed. It was a fantastic flight!

But some notes about this flight, nice pics, hard weather, and a good FSP report!

Thanks for the comments!

LOL! I remember those flights, there was 1 airport with no ILS, poor visibility(worse than this flight), luckily we have that light fix;)

P.S. if anyone wants that light fix, just tell me;)

Jose: If you want, we can organise someday for a flight:)

please dont discuss this sort of thing in the screenshot forum, you may use U2U for this, but for now please keep to the topic of Javier's Fantastic Screens.

Nature at its best!! You cant beat a good old x-wind!!

lol! Good old crosswinds! And double the fun in bad visibility! (or half the fun, decide which is best for you;D)
