The New iFDG MD-11 - What a Plane!
Posted: Sun Nov 02, 2003 4:51 amI love this plane, looks absolutely brilliant. Bit of a frame rate hog, but not too bad 
. Looks stunning in the KLM paint scheme.
Just after pushback - asking ATC for taxi permission.
Lining up on the centre line.
Charging down the runway
Aim towards the sky
View from business class of our source of power.
Turning towards ... somewhere.
Whoa! I just looked at the fuel gauge. 2% fuel! Uh oh. This is not good. Phew, look, a runway. Stuff ATC - I gotta land! Bit of a steep descent, but I don't care.
Not a bad touchdown, seeing as I now have less than 1% fuel.
Engines stopped, not because I stopped them. No fuel!!!
Oh well, the passengers are just gonna have to jump
The airport I landed at was WIIC. I call it an airport, there was nothing there! Nothing at all. Just a runway. No tower, no parking, no gates! How I'm gonna get back I don't know
Comments welcomed.
