also the building behind you on takeoff, runway 29, at Oakland does not exits! Cool pictures though!

Shadezz 05-19-2013 09:01 PM

Yeah I did flare a little to soon on the landing...Only you would know!!! As far as scenery...FSX creates ground structures for eye candy. ILS system helps a bunch to line you up, so I can stay focused on that glide slope...

SurfDog 05-20-2013 08:06 AM

Two reds, two whites on the VASI(or PAPI), nice! The pine trees in Oakland are kinda weird too. I've never seen a tree on an airfield, and not many pines in Oakland. Still that sim looks really sweet. Your cockpit looks a LOT like our next gen 737s, (and much nicer than our old -300s)

Next week I'll keep my releases with weather and flight plans so I can give em too you.

SurfDog 05-20-2013 08:12 AM

p.s. for a landing to be really "good" we shoot to put the wheels on the two "broad" stripes (1000 feet into the touchdown zone). A lot of guys land long at denver (12-16000 foot runways) so we can go for a "Squeaker" which I consider cheating, but the best of us squeak it in the touchdown zone. (Trying to get it right is the most fun part of the job)

Shadezz 05-25-2013 08:03 AM

Well my s-tune kit is on and looks amazing! I'm heading to the powder coating shop weds of this week for my wheels if anyone wants to join me!!!!

Intake? K&N's Drop In's w/Tubes or Nismo S-tune or Stillen? HELP!!

I recommend drop ins.. our OEM intakes are actually very efficient. Otherwise you need long tubes (which are a pain to change/clean up under the bumper)

I'll take your word on that....I think I'll order Z1 tubes and drop in K&N's then.

Chuy 06-12-2013 06:08 PM

29th is good for me what about time? I did drop ins and I haven't felt any difference or gas mileage increase. I have been looking for a good deal on tubes but I am hesitant because I did not see a difference in the vehicle.

Highway 67 to the west of Castle Rock goes all the way over the front range to Woodland Park. Curvy and tons of fun the whole way - we should definitely drive a small portion of it Saturday if everyone is up for it.

I'm down to drive that portion!!!

Chuy 06-27-2013 12:49 AM

One question, it is gonna be hard to miss a parking lot full of Zs but which store are we meeting at?

Shadezz 06-27-2013 08:26 AM

YEP!!! Right by the Big Sign Facing I-25!!!

Chuy 06-28-2013 11:17 AM

Err... Well been trying to get my baby girl back and one thing or another. First the work is awesome minus the fact that they screwed up my license plate bracket, clear bra wasn't installed, a scrape in the back bumper, and my third brake light doesn't work. But I'll see you all on Saturday!

Shadezz 06-29-2013 08:53 AM

Okay Guys today is the Day!!!! See ya there at 11am (i'll be a little early)
