    What funny/interesting thing happened in your life today?

    Posted · Edited by Ben J. Kerman

    Not that interesting, but I made a pretty good landing in FSX (Not on centerline or touchdown zone though, so not actually that good, but at least it's pretty smooth. I did it with mouse yoke and keyboard throttle though, so give me a break)

    Totally not just trying to promote my channel...

    Rudolph doesn't meet FAA or ICAO regulations, right? First of all, is his nose a beacon or is it meant to act as a landing light, or both? He has no anti-collision or nav lights either, and I bet Santa also loads his sleigh with presents over the MTOW often. Does he file flight plans? Does the sleigh satisfy ETOPS? Is it fitted with GPWS? Does he even have a proper pilot license? How is Santa still allowed to fly around?

    I hope it doesn't seem like I'm trying to show off. I mean, I kind of am, but I'm not trying to brag

    Consider the viewers of this thread amazed too!

    Thank you! While I'm showing off my drawings, I've also been working on a Countryball comic, and this is part of it. It's about pirates, obviously, and I put way too much work into the boat cabin. I guess I'm kind of addicted to countryballs now. The country here is Somalia.

    I do tons of paper drawings too, mostly planes, so I might as well show them off. Sorry for the crappy pictures of the drawings. 

    Spoiler

    Top to bottom:

    737-200

    727-200 that looks more like a -100 (727-150?) and is sideways for some reason

    727, 737, and Avro RJ on one page

    737-800 and A320

    Mercedes Actros

    TriStar and a DC-10 that I drew way too short, also sideways

    A bunch of trucks and a small cartoon-ish drawing of me that's kind of inaccurate, I suck at drawing anything living 

    Concorde

    A truck and a bunch of proof I love other languages :P

    More trucks (Oh yeah, I drew the Dutch flag by the DAF XF upside down, I just realized that. I drew that months ago though)


    I draw a lot, there's even more.

    The one or two friends I do have are amazed by my drawings :). 

    End of an era

    I hate the time I was born, now most my favorite planes are being retired or are already retired. The  747, MD-11, L-1011, 727, Concorde, and MD-80, all either retired or rarely flying anymore. I really have to go planespotting soon before it's even more difficult to see a 747, I've never even seen one in real life, and I've never flown in any plane yet. I honestly cried a little when I heard KLM and BA retired their 747s. At least Lufthansa still flies them, for now.
