Tell me what you guys think, also I'm not sure why there is a large black bar at the bottom of the screen if any of you may know why please tell me so that I may correct it and not have the issue in my next video.

Thanks!

4 :) Great but not perfect. And you activated the rev. thrusters a bit late (I think, I'm not a B737 pilot :P)

Yeah I did! I almost ran out of runway too and had to slam on the breaks, I also forgot to enable the AutoBrake.

Anyways thanks! That's the type of constructive criticism I'm looking for. :)

Here's another angle:

3.5 fom me, very late on the reversers.

They are usually activated the moment the main wheels touch the ground.

Other than that, all you need to do is practice your flares, and you should be set.

Jet, getting ready to land in 17 knot winds, gusting to 23...

Pray for me. :D :D :D

(I'll upload a couple of my own landings sometime when I get a capture utility, I've got one or two good ones.)

Yeah I know! I was focusing to much on keeping that 5-degree flare and setting her down gently that I forgot until I began approaching the end of the runway.

P.S. Anyone have any good ILS-Landing tutorial for a big jet like the 737?

I was sort of using the GPS's Approach feature to get lined up but I would like to use my main instruments instead.
