Let's stop talking about it and try to do it ey?!
Took 2% fuel in center tank and well...
Here goes nothing...

Shot from the office, note the speed.


Making a sneaky approach... (yeah right! in a 747!! )


"Uuh... Pete? Did you do something 'funny' to my binoculars? I see a 747 on final..."


Aw man, that is one short runway!!  :-[
Deploying spoilers, speed is now 120!


Baah... missed a few yards!  :-/ Speed is 100.


I just love the smell of burning rubber in the mornin' !


This is how it all ended... Didn't manage to stop on the tarmac, but at least the plane/crew is still alive!  8)

Good attempt I think I've started a little game going here! Try it with the wind blowing in your direction, so it could help slow you down on the ground perhaps, and maybe create a little more lift so your stall speed is lower.

Now with the A380

Now with the A380

Or the AN-225!

Thanks, but I don't like the 'wind-idea'. I experimented with windspeeds of 200 kts a while ago. You could just land her vertically. There were no winds in my attempt.

Why don't you guys try it?  :)

Lmao. Im soo gonna try that in 225

The ultimate test. Try getting a 727 with realistic flight dynamics on and off the strip. Cool attempt

That reminds me, it has to be done with full realistic flight dynamics! Where's the real challenge if it isn't?

Whats the Airport code for this ??
i'll attempt it in the 225 but with a twist

Nemo......

EGDP

Why do you need the code if you know the name?  ::)

I did it with full realisitc flight dynamics!  >:(

I didn't say you didn't! Just a reminder to anyone else

Nice attempt Pigeon! Inspiration to us all!  ;D

Coh!!! That was close!!! I MUST try that!!!

By the way, is that a default airstrip? If not, where can I find it?

Or the AN-225!

Oh yes, trying that now.  :P
Cheers  ;)

im not sure about this but my dad told me

you do know that a plane with full fuel will actually slow down faster?
