Gonme horribly wrong!! ;D

Lately I've had troubles landing without smashing the nose gear.... Today was no different.

Anyway.. Took the ATR up for a little spin in LOT colors

The weather wasn't perfect that day..
Image

So I wanted to climb above the clouds ASAP
Image

Stupid tower didn't allow me to..
Image

So had to fly throught the clouds for a while
Image

YAY SUN!!
Image

But by then I was already nearing my destination
Image

And I had to descend
Image

And YUP! There we go!
Image

Wasn;t a horrible crash and no one got injured seriously thanks to the skill of the Co-Pilot :P

Ah Well.  POOPOO happens... :P ;D

hmm when I had that problem it was because I flared far too early.

Great shots, especialy the one of the plane skiding down the  runway.

Cool  :D

Well, in FS it's cool, anyway... nice set, the fourth is a standout IMHO... looks like I'll have to try that one out, see what I can smash up on landing...

NIce bird, except the wings look too thin and too long, or is it just the angles you've used???

I concur, Looks a lot like a Dornier 328, and it has tiny wings, but that strecthing it ::)
Must have one wicked airfoil

LOVE that plane :o

It's probably the angles + the fact that I was zoomed out a bit!

Thanks fo rthe kind replies all!
