Let's just say my nerves got the best of me at touchdown and could have been smoother. I think he carried Betty off the plane.

Hi all,

Third flight, first VIP too! Bette Davis was on our short hop between EBLG (Liège, Belgium) and LSGS (Sion, Switzerland). The flight was quite uneventful, the descent in the valley was more interesting, lots of turbulences. Greased the landing and got a round of applause. Dang, I'm a happy flyer, thanks A2A!

On my first LAX-JFK flight Betty got all excited because Marlin Brando was on board

First there was a BBC reporter, two flights later I got Paul Newman on board. And that was in the middle of Africa.
I think, this boosted my career. Aced the landing and reputation changed from average to doing a pretty good job.

Re: First VIP in the L-049
Had my first VIP today... did not catch who though. More irritating though is I had an OOM just as I reached my destination and was trying to find a way through the cloud in the mountains so I never got to complete the flight.

I also had my first VIP yesterday on my second career flight from Friedrichshafen EDNY at the Lake of Constance in Germany to Marseille. Betty was all excited when she saw that Cay Grant was on the passenger list

Re: First VIP in the L-049
Last night I had a really cool flight boys.... guess who boarded the plane?
Well then after takeoff we decided to make this an *Extended* flight as myself and the other passengers didn't mind one bit

Re: First VIP in the L-049
Having a company executive and his family on board. During my second climb phase to avoid further turbulence I noticed a ppfftt sound. I forgot to adjust cabin pressure and the differential pressure got to high. While playing at the controls I accidently hit the cabin pressure dump switch for a short time Will see how this effects my career...
edit after landing: See log here http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtop ... 30#p448030
No negative effect, lunch without turbulence, applause on landing.
