LFLJ - Courchevel: Been There, Done It.. - DBE - 17-11-2007

...Bought the T-Shirt!

Just completed leg #46 of the FSP World Tour..

Courchevel happens to hold the record of the world's shortest commercial runway (1760 ft).

Forget about Lukla: I don't think I've ever sweated so so much on final approach...

Wonderful shots Mark! Applause

BEAUTIFUL scenery there, Mark8o I hope you made a vid of your approach and landing Big Grin

Did you have arrestor cables to stop
that ATR??? Man, I am highly impressed that you could make a successful landing at Courchevel with that big turbo prop, and landed
while using only the keyboard?? I'm having to rethink this whole X52 flight controller now and go back to keyboard flying lol

No vid, I'm afraid: I'm not that far yet... Wink

And yes: I would REALLY have appreciated being able to yaw and pitch with the flick of my wrist during that approach. My sphincter muscles will never
be the same again...

*You heard that, Tooth Fairy?????*

try to land at the default scenery from courchevel , there are trees just infront of the treshold

With an ATR?
You are crazzy DBE! Wink

Congrat!

The mountains with snow looks good. Like that!
