willzah1313 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi all, the other day I was flying on Virtual Aerobatics when I saw 2 flat mountain tops the the SE of Kobuleti and I decided I could get a mustang up there, well I managed to get the first 3 up on it unscathed, then incited a bunch of hueys a few mi-8's, an A10, and an Su25 all to try to make it! We end up having about 10 of us up there at 4500.. Then attempts on the other one started thats is west of it, so far I am the only one to make it unscathed, but not for long I'm sure!! Note VTB_Ray was able to go up the 25 degree or so slope to make a different approach! Give that one as shot too, its a blast.... The reason I posted this in the Mustang area Is because the Mustang seems to be the best actf to try this with, as it is a challenge but possible, due to its excellent grass ops... Here are some pics, the mountains are between GG43 and GG53... here are some screens as attachments First attempt, success! Here is the party.. and the lower flattop to the W of the first so anyhow! give these a try if u are down! and lets find more of these to be the first on! (Mt. Elbrus is landable in the Mustang, have pulled it off, but granted with an airstart and a headwind hahah) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willzah1313 Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 Is that vessel in #2 hovering above the water? Naww, just zoomed in all the way, guess its far enough out that the water is bugged so you can see the bottom of the ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firestorm Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Reminds me of my playing around with MSFS years ago. Meigs Field in a C152 or C172. I'd set the weather with like a 100 knot headwind directly down the runway. Took a while but from the runway I'd maneuver the plane downtown and land on top of the Sears tower.

Merlin-27 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Those mountain landings were fun back in the day! Glad to see you are still up to your barnstorming exhibitions, Willz. I'll have to give it a try in NTTR. Would be cool to have a small airbase you could drop there with the ME.
