    When people panically arrive wayyyy too early at the airport and hysterically search their flight number and go to every desk around to make sure they check in for the right flight and board the right flight. Or people that try to explain something to a kid about an airplane, but actually don’t know a *** about it. I remember my dad once told me that aircraft don’t have tail wheels… I couldn’t believe it! And then he told me that the pilots had to be extremely fat to keep the tail off the ground:d!

    Ohyeah, thatn there was this Airline episode when an easyJet aircraft had technical problems, and a passenger came to the desk and said “What is the problem exactle because my man is an engineer!” :rolleyes:

    Hehe, they added a bit too much smoke to the DC-10. Great video. IS this the beginning of a real movie?

    Did Concorde turn away that fast everytime or is it exceptional? That last part is soo typically American:D. Nice video anyway.

    Nice. That Transat often visits Brussels too weekly, but sometimes its a 330.

    What scale then? You can see the Schiphol tower in the background, was it filmed there?

    Hey, the flag is correct! This shows the left side, and the picture on Gemini also shows it correctly, on the right side!

    The answer to that is no. By the way, the elevators impossibly give an input that heavily, and if it would, the nose wheel would be slammed into the bay. And that brake at the end is also of course impossible.
    What is this aircraft? It is a real aircraft or a model that is really powered by small jet engines? :confused:

    There is no option than divert to the closest (=far) airport.

    Nothing can happen in a case of a serious emergency. Eventually the aircraft can land earlier while continuing it’s route. That’s the only solution.
    There are a few airfields in Antarctica, but I don’t think they are long enough to handle an A340 or 747.

    Probably the 737-500’s, however the -500’s aren’t very old.
    In the meanwhile, 733’s can be quite cheap. Some are almost 20 years old

    Oh, but I’m talking about the Phoenix Simulation Software here. They only say 2002.

    Just out of curiousity, when was Schiphol moved to Belgium? 😉
