Well...it's good to be back (again) and I couldn't wait to get back in the office! ;D!

So it seems that Portland Navy (EGDP) is the theme for a few screenies...almost like a lil competition.
So I decided to take Tweeks Cub...and raise the engine power a touch...
To my favourite jet trainer...
Yup...the Folland Gnat! ;D!

Now...the pics...no real story...just captions...

The plane, the target...

The right way up...
Image

The approach...
Image

The dying seconds...
Image

The touchdown (A tad hard on the landing gear ::))...
Image

The final resting point...
Image

Just because I like it...
Image

Apologies for the quality...still tweaking the sim...
I guess it's time for me to get back into the swing of things! :D

Cheers,
Carl

Cheers guys...it's a shame bright red looks crappy under compression :(!

Aye, that be the one I'm using TSC! :D (Although I picked it up direct from the 'Shed)
Oh, the reason the landing was so hard : I stalled it to the floor! ;D
Time to start building up my hangar again...I'm sure I backed it up onto CD somewhere ::)!

Cheers,
Carl

That's the problem with doing something like this, you've gotta know your aircraft's stall speed :P Nice landing anyway!
