More great pics GM72
When you say you managed to land, do you mean on the runway this time

Well, I suppose 9700ft along the runway is better that landing in the lake before it

I'd say that after the bill for the tires on the 737 the other day, we are even.
Nice pictures.

Beatiful, especially shot #2.
It shows the blown flaps perfectly.
I've been in the tail of one of those, I think it was 28 ladder rungs to the top...quite a climb in a tight space.
The view from the top was incredible.  |
