Cleared to Land, on Final approach.  Full Flaps, Air Brakes extended with two thirds throttle, Landing Gear down and locked.  Maintaining 120 knots IAS, 500 FPM descent.




Touch down!!!  Throttle back, brakes on full.  No reverse thrusters.  Oh Crap............



This runway is very short....  90 Knots IAS.  Ejector seat armed and ready.  Crew in crash positions.



Prayers said, mayday sent, divers in the water.



Oh well, maybe I was being a little ambitious trying to land this thing on a carrier..........................

one questions, one idea.....

Question: Is that as slow as it can go?

Oh yeah, the idea........try stalling it right above the runway, at the beginning, that oughta stop it better.

Cool pics though. Keep at it.

Any slower than 110-120 Kts IAS and the nose was so high that I crashed instantly when the tail connected with the deck.

And it was stalled at the moment of touch down.  It may be possible with realism set to easy but that would be cheating.

Lol  ;D

Like My Own

Will I've managed to get an AN225 down on the deck, but I class it as a failure as the wing and the tower became somewhat intimate!!!

How?

I just have to say that the shot joystick took is an absolute master piece

yea, it is mission impossible, the only other thing you can do is land it like a helo, but i dont think that can be done iwht a b-52, and it would sink the carrier in the prossess. I have made things like C172 land like that though, never idle wiht full flaps, and a level atitude, and not pay attention to airspeed, the funny part is, a 500' fall, and no crash! or broken anything

Man, thats an aweful B-52, there are much better ones.  Like the one bonzonie made.

Tell me about it mate, it's a CFS1 B52 with no poxy reverse thrusters!!!

ohhh ok
sorry

No probs mate, no offense taken.  I will download a new one and try again.
