Nice Shots! #2 for me.

And by the way, neither is landing one with engine out, onto a slanted, thin, and EXTREMELY bumpy road while avoiding Seattle's big skyscrapers. :D ;D I've done it. Successfully even.  I have to admit, landing between those giants is NOT that easy.  Especially when the runway is trying to drag you into one because of it's slant.

lol.
yeah i know how hard it is to land in a place like that,did something similar in a small airport with trees on the side,placed in a valley with slight headwind and a broken altimeter,it is acualy fun doing that,i only crashed at the last airport i was visiting..
i am thinking about doing something like that again.
