nope, it's fairly easy to land then, only gear draggs plane down so you have to throttle up which brings you abit to fast to the ground :p

I dunno... easy isn't an adjective I'd pick... :)

Fortunately, I didn't get jumped during the 30-mile return to base. I was an easy target.

i done the same with B17's, lucky i was at 25k i think (climbed after dropping to reduce risk of getting hit). The guy took both of them off and at 25k i had alot of time to work out a good "glide" speed to keep it going down at just 1000fpm, all the way to touch down :D

got a video of final somewhere too :aok
