Dan, man to man, I get the impression you're afraid
of landings, where as myself, that's what I live for.
Sure some is sim's, but I managed to land an F104
on a Carrier deck, to prove it's possible, do you know
why? Cuz it could save a pilots life!

Did you chop power landing or land power on?
Big John


When I land something like a Cessna (in reality) I use
minimum power so the prop is acting as a break.



You break your prop landing?

Not surprised somehow.


In the F104 sim, I crashed and burned about 10 times.



They really should let you try it in a real one.
