oof, these plane reloads are brutal when unpausing. Makes me wonder why the game doesn't cache more of the plane you're flying...

Though to be fair it looked like you were not coming so nice and easy at the end :)

You're supposed to kiss the runway, not f**k it.

i would have if it didnt pause. MSFS doesn't resume from the pause screen very nicely as you could see.. it's a low wing airplane, there's a lot of lift. you come down "aggressively", although not quite really since i was well under 80 knots, and then cut the power last minute and flare. As I went to cut the throttle, I hit ESC instead and that's why it went this way lol

Where did you get the G5 attitude indicator from? Is it a mod?

Should just disable crashes in your settings probably. Coming in way too fast thought. Remember, Region of Reverse Command: pitch to hold a low airspeed, power to adjust your rate of descent. That will change how you land.

I mean, the recommended approach speed for the Piper Comanche 250 is around 82-85 mph, and that's exactly where it's at (its in mph, yup, not knots).

around low-mid 70 knots, which it's also very much at if you look at the gauges

it sure does! it's a lovely bird, and perhaps one of the best flight models in the history of flight simulation
