Well done! I found the trick is to keep an eye on their vertical speed and don't let it drop too fast. Keep it just below zero and ease into the landing. Let's slight adjustments. I'm still not 100% confident in my landings.

And remember a rolling landing is OK! That's why they put wheels on the Apache not skids.

Hey Bones what's the meaning of those letters/symbols on the side above the "74"?
Thats pretty interesting. Im sure there's pride and bragging right that go along with that too...
Thanks for sharing.

Just did one of my best hops ever in the F-14. 2v2 F-14 V Mirage2000. I killed both with Sparrow, then met the tanker and took fuel to get 11,000 lbs total, then headed to the boat and did a case I with the most perfect SHB I'd ever done, proceeded to trap and caught the 3 wire with simply an (OK) 3 grade!

XP11 Flight to RJAA (Tokyo) last night. Hand flown approach and landing in the mighty 727! No autoland like those airbuses. The ILS didn't work for some reason so I flew visual. I came down from FL270 in a short distance and overcompensated and ended up too low. Also a bit offcenter

That was nice and smooth. So odd to see landing without a bright green HUD in my face.

So cool! Thanks! I was looking forward to these because I never get to see what it looks like from the outside.
