Tornado GR9
Quick Question, the speed of which the Tornado, starts to fall out of the air is 800mph, yet it is too fast for landing imo. I always overshoot the runway yet, in every other jet the speed is 500-600 before it falls at the sky and I can land.

Re: Tornado GR9
I was not aware that we were in the year 3000, and the British had extended the Tornado program to get to the GR9 stage. 
I think you mean the Tornado GR.4, or F4. It'll drop dead at about 600-800, but you should be low and on a good glideslope by the time you reach there anyway. Use the brakes when you land.
I suppose you are a keyboard and mouse user? If so, feather your throttle, increasing and decreasing speed slightly as you make your final approach.

Re: Tornado GR9
ye, its the Tornado GR4, the current Harrier is the GR9 
but tbh, I find the Tornado the easiest plane to land for me.

Re: Tornado GR9
First time I landed it it seemed pretty easy.
"Today's forecast calls for 30mm HE rain with a slight chance of hellfires"
"oh, they're fire and forget all right...they're fired then they forget where the target is"
