Little landing sequence. Just like in real life, the 747 is the easiest aircraft to land in FS2004  :)
I messed around with the weather during the replay, hence the somewhat different ambient lightning  :)













Hope you liked them  :)

Good job these aren't for the screenie contest.....

I wouldn't be able to choose the winner from this batch (although 3 & 4 do stand out from the rest for me)

All-in-all a fine bunch of shots you have there Nex

Cheers,

Carl out.....

Nice work Nexus, which 747 is that? And where did you get that skin, its great

Ozzy

It's Posky's 742 v3 (I believe)
Found the repaint (model included) over at Avsim

such a preety plane...well in ur screenies anyway lol

Awesome shots, keep it up!

Ah,your contest outcasts!  ;D

nice shots. it's been a while since i've seen the jumbo here.  ;)

Got some nice pics there  :)

Nice Shots

Looked like nice down the centerline landing as well

As always.  8)

Very nice shots, they all look great. Some great angles and the clarity is great. The one thing i would recommend is the blue tire smoke (available here and at avsim i think), would make the touchdown look even nicer imo.

Nexus, 3, 4, and 5 are stunning angles!

Thanks guys, and I'm quite happy about pic no4, unsual and interesting in your face picture  ;D

I will check out the smoke effect, thanks Grimmy for the advice...did not know about addiditional smoke effects  :)

Nice shots, The 747 in British Airways skin looks like it was meant for that aircraft. I can't think of any other skins that make the 747 look so Majestic.

Although I think landing it is easy, the transition from autopilot to manual flight is quirky. When I disengage the autopilot the tail rudders tend to flap out of control and the big bird drops out of the sky like an elevator that got its cables cut :-/. Haven't figured whats wrong with her yet, but I still keep her because like I said she is a beauty to fly and its the best looking 747 model.
