Hardest landings

[Nemisis]

had newest landing just yesterday, was defending the field from GV attack, got turreted and was heading back to base. I didn't see the convoy or hear the warnings, got fliped up into the air, flew to the rearm pad, and landed upright on the building.

Back in the day, most of you remember when you were able to land a plane over 180 KIAS with gear up.  One of my fondest memories was upping a LA-5/7 with SCEVA on a base that was being attacked.  We would get 3-4 kills real quick then instead of worrying about being picked on landing we would enter the pattern at about 300 Knots.  Touch down gear up and slide to a halt quickly and tower before the NME could vulch us.  It was called.. The SCEVA Slide     This of course  then progressed to any plane we flew and for a couple months I never once used my gear to land. 

Imagine my suprise when I took a break for a couple years and came back and tried to do it... REJECTED!!!!   

I wouldn't call this a "Hard" landing, but it took a little bit of finesse to insure you didn't get the nose down too far and auger.  Good Times

 

I use to do the same thing, landed wheels up for a long time when I first started playing mainly because I had no rudder controls, then they changed the speed at which you could do that so I had to learn to land wheels down, plus buy a stick with rudder twist.

lol, does everyone have rudder pedals or joysticks with rudder twist? All I have is a mouse, keyboard, and a joystick.


I managed to find my lanc picture. It was sitting in an old CD with my AH2 pics on it. I should really clean out my computer desk. Found one of the stuka one too.

Was kind of a tard with the lanc. I led the 190 in the photo to the CV which led to endless waves of B25's, and lancs hitting us.

i landed one of my .40 sized r/c models in nearly 20mph crosswind.....the wingtip was scraping the ground before either of the mains touched......

I had a hard landing at the work christmas party last year.
