Ok..all I can say is who picked this destination!   #%$!%!$  S.O.B.  I couldn't find this airport even though I had GPS, and everything under the sun, but the airport like showed up at the last minute, and I was doomed as you can see from the pictures.  Got a big fat ZERO on landing score, but I landed it and Mr. Smith can kiss my {censored}.  Well the next stop is non-ILS as well, so hopefully I can do a better job.  Also, the flight absolutely started off wrong by me getting confused on what part of flight I was on, then I boogered it up some more, for my pathetic scoring....sheez.  Get me out of this lonely airport!

 
Takeoff! See you later Goose Bay...off to an unknown land.

 
Well somewhere there is an airport down there, but lord knows where it is...


Oh crap, we're in trouble Mr. Smith...We're coming in hot! On a gravel runway.  Wonder if my plane can handle it?

Flying Notes:  Landing Score: 0 (#!$%!$)  Flying Score: 78.70

Landing included the following problems:

• Too hard - may have damaged your landing gear.
  
• Without spoilers armed - arm them before landing.
  

Flight included the following problems:

• Exceeding flap speeds - your flaps may be damaged: have them checked.
  
• Braking during takeoff - watch those feet.
  
• Poor steering during takeoff - stay in the centre of the runway.
  
• Poor attention to taxi speed - dangerous to yourself and others.
  
• Narrowly missed tail strike - watch your pitch: this could have been bad.

My second of 3 stops in some of the most remote parts of the world.  You are going to see a pattern for the next few flights as described in my writeups.  I'm trying to think of a nice way to label non-ILS landings.  I'm totally blaming Ole for this! (Trust me, I kidding.  I need to blame somebody, and I cannot come to grips with blaming my self.)  This is my second non-ILS landing at a runway I'm totally not familiar with.  I will also say that after installing all my new scenery, I don't recall seeing all of these hills and valleys, thus adding to my piss poor, pathetic landing scores.  Again, Ole's fault!   Well, the landing stunk again, but I can't get over how the hills and valleys and water look great way up north here. 

 
Can't really tell, but the wheels are churning up dirt and debris and bouncing like crazy.  Land to snow packed.
 
Flying over more terrain.  Mountains and water...reminds me of Alaska.
 
Just more landscape pictures.
 
 Ok...As you can tell, I'm way to high.  Non-ILS landing and I'm coming in high and fast.  Although I got it lined up better.
 
Oops...Not enough runway to to stop the CRJ-700.  As you can tell from this shot, I had to come over some hills, and I
DIDN'T missed the edge of runway.  This is what we call in the states, a bed and breakfast place.  And shut the hell up about reverse thrusters off Mr. Smith.

Flying Notes:  Landing Score: 0 (#!$%!$)  Flying Score: 88.48

Landing included the following problems:

• Too fast - you had to force the plane to stay down.
  
• Nose down too low - you need to land on your main gear.
  

Definite room for improvement...

Flight included the following problems:

• Rapid descent - dangerous and uncomfortable.
  

Definite room for improvement...

Yeah - that MrSmith is pretty particular about noise procedures especially in the real purdy places...

6 days later, I'm finally leaving Canada and off to Greenland.  The reason for the delay was Mrs. Robinson in Seat 4C.  It's seems we had a freakin' lightbulb out on her seat which reminded her to fasten seatbelt.  An AOG plane on ground cost companies money, but we are all about safety here at JoeMini WWT, Inc.  Customer satisfaction first.  Well once again, this will be another Non-ILS landing....and guess who I'm blaming again?  You got it...Ole!

I've officially renamed non-ILS landings to Not-Only-Never-I-Lack-Skill landings.  Sheez, I think we get robbed on this part, but I remain confident that somewhere in my next 500 landings on this tour, I will successfully post a score about 10 but no more that 20.  [Censored at this point]  More complaining in seperate posting to come.

The reason for the zero score again, was dangit...well, partly, well ok...all my fault.  I turned on the GPS versus the NAV, and forgot to turn it back to NAV, and Mr. Smith was just a bitching at me for where the Hell are you landing?  I was pissed because I flew that whole flight with out A/P and I still screwed up!  *!$#!%$!@#$

Ok...enough complaining...off to Greenland.

 
Huge Rain and not very good visability on takeoff.  Get me the heck out of here.
 
Not sure why I take so many pictures, but it's just cool scenery.
 
100 nm out from the coast of Greenland...finally!  Some lowlands, water, and hills. 
Cool looking Hills. and turning right onto final on the above mentioned Non-ILS landing... Guess what kinda score will happen?
 
Oh lovely, an elevated airport above water....Everything looks good....Where is everyone?

Flying Notes:  Landing Score: 0 (#!$%!$)  Flying Score: 130.40  (Thank god I'm scoring on my flight scores)

Landing included the following problems:

• No glideslope information was available on visual approach.
  
• No runway alignment information was available on visual approach.
  
• Too fast - you had to force the plane to stay down.
  
• No glideslope - could not compare flare to glideslope.
  

Flight included the following problems:

• Narrowly missed tail strike - watch your pitch: this could have been bad.
  
• Nose held too low - we're not in combat.
