AN225 at Lukla

[lilley91]

we havent seen anyone try to land the AN225 at lukla yet have we, Eno posted some pics of it, the new payware scenery, and i think that it was either ozzy or fly2e that said they were going to try the AN225 there.

i really want to see that effort.

anyone else?

What's an AN225? Where is Lukla?

I could do it. I'd just set the sim rate to Slowest and take it in. Any landing from which you walk away is a good one. Any landing after which you can reuse the airplane is stellar. I read that somewhere in these pages...

an AN225, is the largest aircraft on the planet, and Lukla is a tiny airport in the himalyas

there was a joke about someone trying to land the 225 there, when eno posted some screens of the new scenery he had just got installed

i wanted to know if there had been any attempts yet

Slewing! You're in thr presence of the Antonow AN225 master himself... the one we all know as Ozzy... and Ozzy doesn't use slew! Blasphemy!  >:(  ;D  ;D  ;D

Don't worry boys... someone will do it... it's just a matter of time!

Okay the 225 is longer than the piggin' runway but you chaps may want to take a look at the 2 "Not my usual mount" threads in the Payware Screenshot forum
A blindin' bit of Dak flyin' if I do say so myself

its very very do-able to land the 225 there, and even take off aswell.

i've actually done it a couple of times.

Nemo we're talking about a tiny Nepalese hill special. The An-225 WON'T fit! Trust me! I think you're mixing up your airfields
