I was playing around with a 747 and I pushed the landing harder and harder, until I found the breaking point. I manage to colaps the landing gear on the right side without fs9 declaring it a crash. It was kind a nice hehehe  ;D

LOL Nice!!!

POSKY models always do that. makes it more real!

otherwise, very nice

how hard did you land (descent rate)? from what i've seen in videos from kai tak, 747 can take pretty hard landings in real life  ;)

I wonder what the real 747's landing gear touchdown decent rate rating is...

Looks more like just another day at Air Canada

Usually I break through the concrete rather than collapse the landing gear. If you just go to change the Aircraft for the same one it will repair itself real quick.

Hmmm, I think I've lost my adventurest ways... Ihaven't broken an airplane in at least 6 months! The last time I broke a plane was screwing around in the default 172 doing spins, stalls and other aerobatic fun stuffs at low altitudes. I also like staling that aircraft on take-off to see if I can recover before the splat.

Oh yeah, and the time I tried to fly a helocopter...... I understand the principal, gyroscopic effects and the mechanical workings, but I just can't seem to not crash these things after a few minutes of uncoordinated flight.

I was once told by a helicopter engineer (he designed them for Sikorsky in the 70's) that all problems having to do with helicopters have "And Then You Die" attached to the end of it.

Your engine quits.... And Then You Die
Your Rotor becomes unbalanced.... And Then You Die
A bolt comes out...... And Then You Die
Your tail rotor quits....
You get the picture  

Man hope you're not the pilot for Air Canada when I fly in April lol.....great pic
