Well, I would say that Heathrow is fine. I also used to work in Air traffic and I know the excellent standard of ATC in this country.
I would say the toughest airfields are the Channel Islands with the strong winds. But, I would say the worst for near misses is White Waltham. I have nearly come a croppppper in there many a time with the amount of aircraft and lack of ATC and aircraft without a radio. It’s madness on a nice Sunday afternoon.
Not as impressive, but this was taken on my second flight back to Hong Kong over Russia.
It’s a GA-7 cougar.
I have a few hours in one of these machines. Not many of them around.
I also nearly ended up flying this “eye in the sky” a few years ago.
Hong Kong, by far.
This one is for wysiwyg,
Hey wys, nice looking light twins those 757s. Ha Ha…….
Cheers Kab.
747-400 that has always been my dream, and then my dream came true.
I am operating my first flight in to Paris from Hong kong this week. Can’t wait.
Kabir,
I think you got the wrong end of the stick my friend.
It’s an oscillatory movement due to lateral instability.

This plane is currently parked up at Hong Kong at the moment.
Just for some useless info, some crew have been air sick on the new A340-600 due to a circular movement of the aircraft because of the long body. Just thought you might like to know!!!!
I have a feeling that I am on the Aurigny DVD. I would be quite interesting to see myself in action.
I would also like to point out……media crap again. Lets scare everyone about this illness.
The bug is stopping people flying, no people to fly then grounding the airline is probably a good thing. Not much point flying empty.

Gary, consider it done mate…………..
RE: Christmas came early yesterday…
Thanks chaps,
Well, after a long hard think I have gone for the 747-400.
I am currently sorting out my start date which looks like it will be in a month or so, and starting to pack up our stuff for the trip back to England before the long trip to Hong Kong.
I would also like to thank WYSIWYG again for all his help and I just hope he gets to fly a big airplane one day. HeHeHeHe!!!!!!!
Cheers WYSIY….
All the best guys
