Although oddly enough I didnt land at Kabul, so not sure why that happened but I picked up a number of refugees, and upon take off
engine 1 was damaged. Being we had 3 good engines, the decision was made to continue on and not run the risk of more damage, so
engine was was shut down, fuel to it cut off, but apparently the gear was also damaged. Coming in for a landing the old bird was not very
controllable and although as much that could be done was done, she crashed.

Was hella fun trying to get that bird to land safely though. Went around twice and on the last attempt I couldnt hold her straight and
true.

Yeah emergencies are fun, flew into Baghdad last night, well more accurately, flew onto some highway about 5nm from the airport; they shot every
system out on the plane. The carcass that touched down cost £186,000 to repair, i don't think it cost that to buy.

Thankfully my airline hasn't ventured into any warzones as of yet.... but with my piloting skills may the Lord help us when we do lol

I figured with getting the Captainsim C-130, I could make it my transport service for humanitarian flights for refugees in various 3rd world
countries, both in war zones and not. I try not to do too many warzones because it adds points too fast especially if they turn your plane
into a collander shot with a 12 guage

I just got my C10 rank today, did a short hop from KLAX to KLAS, and ended up passing over that damned california warzone.

We crashed about 10nm away from KLAX. Nice way to start of Rank c10 eh? I lived luckily.

If you want to get rid of the California warzone you can just delete the corresponding line in the dangerous.cfg file within the
FSPassengers/config folder

Amen! I'm up to 18 flights now, approx. the last 8-9 are perfect, and I'm still waiting to become C1....

A few long perfect flights are maybe what you need
