Passengers WILL be late ... they'll be known as "the late passengers of the doomed jet".

I was more 'inspired' by this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1w4KEnkWIg
Landed at Kai Tak myself (as a passenger) 20-30 times without incident or excitement.  The most interesting was a very hard landing in a UAL 747 that caused all the oxygen masks to drop.. everyone so dead tired after 15 hrs that noone even made a peep like something out of the ordinary was happening.

Interesting.  As much noteriety as it got, I thought every landing out there looked like these:

Lotsa luck! Often times, coming in on 13, it seems I am running out of runway before I get it straightened out.

I thought this would be about "Nine Dragons" crappy waste of time download. I almost had a heart attack when I found out that the last 2 files that I spent mad time downloading were absolutely defective peices of crap. The airport was the only thing downloaded the rest of the scenery left tubes and billboards were scenery textures should be!

Sorry for rambling on your thread But I am pissed and wanted to share my dread with the folks!  :'(
