| Jan 23, 2014 at 13:50 | comment | added | Alexander Johansen | I actually have a video of me landing the PMDG in Heathrow, London. It can be found here: youtube.com/watch?v=8BGL5lH-VXY About the weight, wind and weather factors: I am not sure as it differs a lot. I usually let FSX choose a random payload before each flight. And the weather and wind is not always the same. The video might show some of it. I know i did mistakes during that landing (like using the anti-ice or doing a "clean-up" on the runway). So please don't point at those if it doesn't play a factor about this subject. | |

| Jan 23, 2014 at 13:39 | comment | added | Qantas 94 Heavy | The "willingness" of the aircraft to descend depends on a few factors, including weather conditions, aircraft weight, your speed and the resulting rate of descent. You might want to add those specifics so we can see whether that would compare with a real-world aircraft or not. | |
