Hello all
I'm Keith, I live in the U.K. and just joined these forums after using FSP for a couple of months (got a couple of great tips while lurking here)
thanks.
It's really given a new dimension FSX, and made it my fave relaxing pasttime again. :D
My question involves entry patterns. I have no real world experience of flying... except as a passenger and the FSX tutorials talk about being a mile
or so from the airport on the base leg IIRC, but does this vary between aircraft types? In my limited knowledge I'd say it had to, can't really see a
747 turning onto final with 1nm to go... or do they?
Thanks in advance
Keith
