I really must stop looking at youtube posts 'cause I end up wasting ages looking at other stuff I see there!! :lol:

There's one on the same page as this titled 'Incredible Red Arrows Landing'. Don't be fooled as I was. There's nothing incredible about it at all.. it's just the Red Arrows landing! :roll: There really is some cr@p on youtube isn't there! :lol:

I know what you mean Dave

And my pet hate :@

See a link called emergency landing, or incredIble landing ,or whatever just to find it's some bod who thinks he the bees knees because he had done something in flight sim like the one landing a 737 in St Barts or the Lear Jet on a short icy strip.

The implication is that you can do that in real life......must be able to it you can do it in
FS

Trouble is it is not always easy to tell it's FS by the small thumbnail
