Posted: Fri Dec 23, 2011 12:19 pmGood shot club! 
Top of the world, Ma!
But for me, back to the harsh reality of last minute shopping.
My daughter has taken over my gaming pc anyway with ...aackk...The Sims.
Sadly I had to come to work in order to be here in the SimVForum.

Posted: Fri Dec 23, 2011 4:12 pmGreat shot club. I would never have thought of going to Mt. Everest. The limit of my imagination is Austria in a Ju 52 with paratroopers jumping out.

Posted: Fri Dec 23, 2011 9:13 pmThanks you two! And you guys had some of the most creative ones I've ever seen for a contest.
The way I got the idea was this:
First I got a Christmas gift that arrived early, an aviation magazine.
I found an article on bush flying, which I used to do in my sim quite regularly, due to how fun and easy I find it landing a cub on a 45* tilted slope bouncing up and down unevenly in less than 500 feet with no power. (Among other crazy stunts)
So I decided to take another go and get back into the back seat. First flight I did was a loop around Brave, Alaska, to land on a very thin, steep uphill and rugged ledge about 10ft wide sandwiched between a road and a 500ft drop into a lake.
Then I tried to think of an even more difficult placce to land, for example, a pinpoint landing with a less than 200ft. runway in harsh winds and with very minimal power. That location turned out to be Mount Everest.
