What was your smoothest landing pitch in FSX or FS2004 ? - Captain_Ricadro - 29-08-2012
Well just to know how these pilot can land they bird safely on the ground, my last was -35º in a B247, my best was the 747-8i in -67º.
Here a challenge:
--> HOW ARE YOUR LANDINGS?

It's not the pitch what makes landing smooth but descent rate.

During the FsP World Tour #2, I remember having a 0 touchdown rate with the ATR-72 and +200 ft/min (that's right, positive rate) at Lukla

one of the few airports that if you fly straight and level the airport comes up to meet you.
Not to mention no go-arounds permitted at Lukla.

Probably the best from my last 24 jet landings, had also -60ft landing with Cessna 441 Conquest.
Probably have even smoother somewhere in my 135 flights with my other company, but really I don't bother to go through all of them.

I'm just curious about why we care about the landing pitch.
