Does this mean Abriael is a member of the paparazzi now?

“ if you manage the challenging feat of landing a light plane on the White House’s lawn (I guarantee it can be done. Just check out the video)”
Lmao I’d like to see a plane try to get anywhere near the whitehouse.

Abriael1143d ago (Edited 1143d ago )

Not a plane, but almost https://en.wikipedia.org/wi... 😂

sourOG1143d ago

Lmao I’m surprised even for pre-911.

Christopher1143d ago (Edited 1143d ago )

Only possible in the game because they don't have the wrought iron fence that is normally there. They'd have to try and crash through it or come in too high before they could stop in real life. It got even taller in 2019.

Haha, it can actually be very possible depending on the wind. An aircraft like this can land at an extremely slow ground speed and nearly vertically with a decent headwind. I only made it harder for myself by using real-time weather and had a tailwind :D

That being said, it is true that the simulator doesn't have the F-22 that would scramble to shoot you down before you get even close :D

Christopher1142d ago (Edited 1142d ago )

There is no wind in that area that would do it. With the many surrounding buildings and the purposeful treelines at that elevation, it doesn't create that. Wind would also be blowing towards the white house grounds shown from the Potomac River, meaning you'd have to perform your maneuver on the much smaller front grounds or land after flying over the White House.

Not very possible. Designed the way it is on purpose.

Abriael1142d ago

@Elwenil: I don't think crashing counts as landing haha :D

Christopher1140d ago

@Elwenil: he crashed and they made changes since then to make it even harder. As I pointed out in my first comment, they even increased the height of the fences in 2019.

Just put a picture of loli on the plane and Sleepy Joe would greet them on the lawn with arms wide open, and nostril ready to sniff

Yes, tried Emirates from Heathrow to Dubai. The only plane I managed to get a proper sleep haha. It is loaded with cool technology, like you can see the outside cameras on your inflight entertainment. And despite the 4 engines, it is still very quiet. Incredible!
