Hi!

Great pics. Many thanks.

Now that would make some interesting Youtube videos.  Crazy fighter pilots flying their planes into tiny mountain strips!

Many thanks,

Hi there Pierre, and welcome onboard.

It would be a challenge to make such a video, exp the landing ::)
I'm still sitting tight at Lukla, waiting for spareparts to my gears 8-)

That looks like fun 8-)

Great shots too..........I think the cars in/on the runway are there because the developer used freeway textures for the runway so that it could be made to slope. Maybe the cars are from the freeware REX road textures?: http://www.realenvironmentxtreme.com/downloads.html

If you remove these textures the cars will go away ;)

Thank you CHUCK :)

Much better indeed !
So, how do you like these sloped runway landings now ? Challenging, aren't they ?  8-)

The same author made quite a few similar sloped runways for the Alps (the famous Courchevel, for exeample).

Well, i think i would like any sloped runway if the inflight are normal! It sure is a good way to get the rolling speed down.

BUT this airfield is certently not normal, exp when flying jets and need that right turn to hit the runway. That is challeging flying i must say. I love it though ;)

I'll have a look on those in the Alps. Thanks again.
