Hi.
Just finishing my flight , the second in the pax version med fuel load , max pax load , cruiseing at 29000ft , so this was my longest and highest flight so far , ASN giveing its worst weather , rain and low vis on leaving KSEA , had to put signs on in cruise for 20 min, as the aircraft was in turbulance mid flight , then ASN really screwed me at KORD with the following atis report winds 045/3 vis 4nm 700 brk/9000 brk 11000 overcast 3008 alt setting 6 nm NNE from KPWK windshear alert , this atis report was way off the mark , weather so bad i had to turn it off as it was giveing severe windshear on approach into runway 4R , and zero vis almost to gound , the windshears where so bad it was almost causeing the aircraft to stall , when i was configured for landing , i had to gun the engines to recover control of aircraft , might have damaged them trying to get aircraft and pax down saftly.
Fuel onboard after shutdown was 3447/1968/1966/3480 lbs
Just looked at engines all where excellent prior flight , thanks to ASN and its bad weather 2 are good 1 excellent 1 very poor , all showing signs of heat stress and detonation damage .
LOOKS AS IF ALL 4 ENGS NEED AN OVERHAUL cheers ASN. engs and airframe only have 10.5 hrs on them.
Regards alan.

If only we could turn the weather off in real life too sometimes

Hi.
Well i reset my career due to the last flight messing me about , only thing wrong with this flight , was my landing , still not smoothe enough , i ease her down , i here the 10ft call , and still easeing her down then there is a sudden thud , as the tyres hit the runway , you know before you even open the career page , that it was not good enough , but was surprised , that the only comment was saying how good the aircraft was , must get them landings nailed.
Stats for flight.
tot time=5h19m
grd dist=1716sm
air dist=1842sm
pass miles=118429
salary=$9645
fuel cost=$859
maint cost=$697
cost per mile=$0.84
pass comment= what a roomy plane,was like a flying house
personal comment= i wish i aced that landing
regards alan.
P.S. i noticed that some have posted the careers doc , for future ref , how do you do that.
