  He’s very serious about sim flying, but his videos are really funny. This one is much more reserved, he’s just seeing the can stick the landing, but always pay close attention to the captions.

  Good headwind. Airplane with decent STOL. No obstacles. Balanced weight.

  Brakes. Flaps full. Max throttle. Rudder center. Wait. Release brakes. V1. Vr. V2. Vy.

  Bye.
