Your Barbers pole paint on that pitot tube is required , I'm sure you can get in but you have to make it safe for the ground crew, you need that b/white pole cos on the ground these are just as dangerous

Technically you can land a plane anywhere. It's just a matter of how it's landed

Yeah ... i thought i was a little too nose down at that point .... but the thing moves so bloody fast , if you flare too soon even with power off ... your back in the pattern
I was out of gas at that point anyway , so it was going to end then ... one way or another

Gone away from the Lightning .. Love to see a superb Short Stirling .. was my 11/12 Birthday prezzie from my Father , but Lighting strikes twice , Idea is start recreating memories ,you can't photo them so you have to create them , I believe the best thing to do is Hook into your Angles !
