Yep, you are looking steady on final, but i am sure that the tower give you a go-around call.. Its a shame your pc crashed before the landing.. It is the most fun thing of flying.. LANDINGS

Hey there Morvious......:-)
I've really perfected my ILS approaches now usually getting them dead on!!
It was a real shame that it did lock up, also I do have to agree that the most exciting part is the landing....... I'll try it again soon, I liked the approach as you were flying over houses and tress low giving you the feeling of speed!! it was great!!

I forgot to mention that resizing the pics and giving them one sharpen through Ifranview does help to make them clearer!!

Oh well...... at least I discovered how to get sharper pics.....the first one might be slightly blurred as I might have forgotten to sharpen it!!!!!!
Morvious do you think these are good size pictures or should they be smaller???

Well, How bigger the shots how better they are.. I have an 15" screen but i dont mind when i have to scroll to the right to see a picture above 800x640.. So mine answere is no.. do not resize them smaller then that.. you will loose all the details of those shots, and i have to zoooom in the picture to see what is on the background of it

When you see mine shots i have resized them to 800x640 because when i dont do this, the picture has a size of 140Kb+.. so i can't put them on this forum, and there are people who don't like scrolling down for a picture with 15" screens

Hope it helped ya out..

Just keep your shots comming.. i will reply on those :)

Hey there Predator thanks for replying, I love the landings!!......:-) :-wave :-wave
thanks for the tips Morvious and I shall reply to yours:-) , the size I used here was 640 by 480.... I use the freeware Ifranview, I take the pic and put it into MS Paint and save as JPEG then open it up in Ifranview and resize then sharpen which in these pictures I have seen a difference!!!! I shall keep them at this size for the future :-)
THANKS AGAIN!!
