I have the keys bound. My problem was that when I shut the engine down, I would lose the torque and I couldn't compensate quick enough with the rudders. I just wait until I've slowed down enough and then shut down. Worked great 5 outa 5 times! :aok

Well I'm no expert at landing but... What I do is go to the runway at an angle then kill my engine at about 250 mph, and then use my rudder to puch one way and push my joy stick the other way... It slows me down really quickly.. then i hit the runway at about 90-100 mph and put on the breaks.... Always works for me.. I hardly ever crash.  Just a suggestion if you  would like to try it :aok

Legend, I fly bish if you would like to get back into it look me up in the main arena. Our squad is on every evening around 6-12pm est. others are on during the day but most are on during that time. We are an easy going squad without much in the way of rules.

Glad your back home!  Welcome!!

Thanks Kev....I think I pretty much got the landing down. Now, If I could only get the dying down again I'd be all set! :confused:
