Landing in Lisbon

WOW! Awesome video! Music fits perfectly. That scene is exactly what FSX lacks. I admit, some of the Orbx sceneries, with its street lights and such, feels more realistic. But in general, you'll never find something like that unless
you get the Fly Tampa Kai Tek scenery.

To be picky I think he was a bit high on short final there... seemed to touch down past the TDZ area.
 
What a great video. On top of the dark hill you see to the left as you come in is St. George's castle (he of dragon slaying fame). Lisbon is one of my favorite places.

Despite all the amazing places I got to visit while in the Air Force, this video points out the fact that there are a lot of beautiful places (like Lisbon) that I'll never get to see. Beautiful view from the cockpit. . .thanks for posting. . .I could watch that over and over again and never get tired of it.
 
Not only a beautiful approach but you really gotta visit Lisbon once in your life if you can. Such an old and beautiful city! Crazy traffic though! :D
 
Thanks for the vid Beaufighter. I was lucky to visit Lisbon in the 80's while stationed at Torrejon. Visiting small villages built on hills in Portugal and seaside villages was a treat I will never forget. The people treated my family the BEST!

I love this kind of cockpit video.

This KLM 747 driver has some from other airports around the globe:

Cool video! WOW!! Thanks Beaufighter !:ernae:

Cool too that finally someone recognises the genius of Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays and friends to fly along.

If MS Flight doesn't look exactly like this i won't be buying it. :d

cheers,
