I wonder what deliberate mistakes you can find on this one :roll:
http://www.speedbird747.com/videos/HST2.wmv
It's a bigger file and higher quality than the VC10 and I got a wee bit of buffering when streaming. 3 mins 50 secs. If you prefer you can download it (32Mb 3 mins) in this zip:

Or, of course you may prefer to do neither
I'm logging off now as I'm on earlies so you can say what you like and I won't see it!

Yes.. a wild bit of buffering on that one. How you can be at 71% and then a second later at 28% is beyond me but so are a lot of things
Nicely flown Ian ;-) Have a good shift

Thanks Ian - great video.
The IGS has a special place in my heart - it was my second ever flight/landing as a wee wide eyed 20yr old on a big adventure far from home....happy days
Yours aye,

No room for Cat 3 there! Beautifully executed landing.

Excellent video Ian and a very nice smooth turn onto finals I have to say. Now when do we get to see another? :roll:

Thank you, thank you ...
Well, I seem to have redeemed myself a bit, so I think it's time to retire gracefully from the movie business whilst I can still hold my head up! Maybe I'll make a comeback in the long dark winter nights under an assumed name

I don't think it's proper to make assumptions about an assumed name. But that has quite a depth of subtlety to it, Garry. I'm very tempted.
Don't tell anyone else as I'd like to remain anonymous

What a perfect landing Ian...Just the sort of landing that my First Officers used to do...Especially when my daughter, Dawn was sitting on the jumpseat :roll:
