Personally, I'd go ahead and land anyways, the ai tend to take less than a quarter of the runway before turning to taxi to the parking area


Well, I know there hasn't bee a post on here for a month, but its on the front page.

Answering a post put it in front page. Now it's there again...

I don't let the AI do my landings for me, unless I cannot do otherwise. A mission is a mission till the very end... And that one was carried out till
the very end: try to belly land a Mig-15 and survive ! I did. But it was a mistake to loose my gear in the first place, when all was going so well.
The second time the mistake was to loose my flaps, tried to land anyway and did survived again.
But the Mig was ruined each time, so not a nice track record to look back at. Yes, I think the AI would have cheated and made a perfect landing;
could have preserved my record that way... hum! But you always think you can make it if you try. Hard decision to do in split seconds.
It is just the getting out of combat adrenaline thing; you fly high from success, and don't take the "wisest" choice.

Been busy everywhere on mods, posts, job, family life, travel and answering help
calls, so the way it is going : all and everything is only a question of time.

The only thing I didn't do since july, was actually fly for fun... I keep doing take off and landings for testing maps...
Sometimes when one of those tests fails, you just leave it for another day to try again.
Otherwise it becomes very tedious work to persist. A little one day project (modding) has been going on for two months...
Doing minute corrections and fine tuning, the changes are sometimes very small, but testing for the results requires a lot more... time.
Dam ! That was three months ??? Almost. The project was a small july 23 map change. Lot bigger now.
I'll be back... in a couple of months I guess...
