Dear Fspassengers.. ;-)
Let me tell you a fun and strange story from my real life in flight simulator 2004... Well at least through my avantar since the plane and
every living sole were killed.
I was flyving from vienna ( LOWW ) to Heathrow in London.. I was a little late due to traffic before take off ( the fs2004 bug, were the planes
just stay on the taxi way and never move ) so I was happy to be on final on runway 27R at heathrow..
Then sudenly the fspassengers wrote something about flying above a war zone..... what the hell...... was the only thing I could think off,
right before I lost my left engine to small arms fire.....
I pressed 7700 on my transponder and declared an emergency a few miles from the runway.... Then things started to go wrong....
Since I was on final I was flying pretty slow with flaps ect. so I started loosing altitude quite fast.. and there were no possibility to just glide
to the airport du to bad weather and wind... So I tried to speed up the plane but unfortunatly I was to slow with full flaps/gear ect. so the
plane started turning to the left quite hard... while I was fighting with the rudder and yaw to stay on course to the airport... but impossible.
So the last few secounds before slamming into london ( houses everywere ) I experienced my plane flying sideways in the air...
I have been flying more than 1000 houres ( from 1989 ) in my flight sim life but this was the first time for me to be flying 90 degrees
sideways... I know its becourse I only had one engine and it was pushing me sideways.... but wow.
as you all know planes was not designed to fly sideways so I made a soft landing ( Dont know why ) sideways into a small house at
about 80 knots.. ....
I have to inform the comunity that I lost my 200 million plane a wonderfull pilot and 89 lives + 4 people in the house and a cat!!!!!
The police will make the names avaliable soon when the familys have been informed.
Have a nice day..
RIP
