Hint #1: don't forget to lower your under-carriage!

Hint #2: keep your nose up!

Hint #3: apply all brakes once all wheels are down, apply full reverse-thrust!

Hint #4: try flying shorter distances!

"Full reverse-thrust" might not be a feature in the game, try reading the manual to find out!

Landing speeds should also be in the manual, assuming the manual is as detailed as that pic looks...

What spec computer you running, by the way, because those graphics look superb?

i use to play 2002 a hell of alot,

i use to fly online with a few friends,

we use to use an external programme which we could make a route in and then link it to the in game auto pilot,

ill have a hunt around and find it for you, use to really enjoy it,

ive got all the decent controlers and even have a seperate trottle controler, On my old system i had a graphics card which had to outputs so i would sometimes have another monitor linked up and use both screens while flying,

its quality u get a real feeling of being "up there"

Pretty nuch u just take off, autopilot and land, but there is so much more to it than that, you have to keep in constant contact with different Air Traffic Controllers over different airspaces, failiures rarely, but do happen, you have to constantly monitor your course and adjust your bearing to match

Altitude must be monitored and adjusted, weather must be taken into account, it was clear on my flight but becomes a nightmare if it goes bad.

And besides just watching the scenery fly past is good enuff, all scenery is like actual locations in the world, mountain ranges are true to life and other features like you fly past Paris get Eiffell tower etc
