This isn't anything special, but a few months ago i flew in to Burbank, CA on Southwest.  Now I was practically raised in an airplane and seen plenty of crazy take-offs and landings.  But that landing on the short runway at burbank (it's the north/south rwy i believe) was one that made me sit back and think "wow, i've gotta try this one when i get home!".  I got home, fired up FS and loaded a SW 737 and tried to land that thing.  I have a new respect for those guys that have to land there, because i have yet to do it in a big jet.  You have to set that thing down right on the numbers to have a chance.

So now when i need to practice short landings, i fire up burbank.  Good times!
