Lowering gear and turning final

On the localizer The snow turns into rain closer to the ground And the runway appears out of the fog

Disconnecting the autopilot Final approach just above the rooftops of Vilnius Landing with flaps at 30 degrees to avoid the potential deep stall

Thrust reversers and spoilers engaged after touchdown (nice work on those reversers, Riviere!) Stopping the plane on the wet runway surface Continuing to the end of the runway...

Shutting down at Vilnius Airport Another shot from the cockpit after shutting down Back at EYVI later on - it seems X-Plane has placed some buildings on the ramp...

Luke is starting final approach, so I'll take off and watch the landing (if I can see it through this weather!) Lifting off Got to stick to low altitudes or I'll lose sight of the ground completely

Following the runway (but making sure not to get too close since we have a plane landing) Looks like Luke made it down despite the poor weather Now following Luke's plane along the runway... although I've lost it in the fog temporarily

There's Luke at the end of runway 02 An autothrottle accident takes Luke's plane off the end of the runway
