Had a blast today and tonight on PilotEdge with my kids in my little 737-200 Sim.  The approach into Vegas looked pretty darn real if you ask me.  I made a comment jokingly on final that the controller dumped me into the approach to high hence the sink rate sink rate on approach LOL   Thanks for another great day of flying on PilotEdge  with my kids.  My daughter was my co-pilot and my son recording.  Enjoy the video, lots of cool action and radio chatter.

Nice one Rob!
I still don't know why anyone would use the "other" Flightsim(s) ;)

Thanks Nat and Trevor!   It was a crap approach but still fun.  Controller dumped me into vegas to high and had a hard time slowing down.  If you look at the VSI, it was 1500 to 2200fpm the entire time. Daughter loved it though  lol   Felt like Trevor on approach.  Barber pole till short final  :o

Wonderful work. Just out of curiosity, is the GS inop or just not dialed in to an active frequency?

thanks

Thanks Eric.  The GS was not dialed in as we were not expecting that runway. 99% of the time we get 25L not 1R  LOL Hence the horrible approach

Rob you've done an outstanding job, I always enjoy the updates. Thanks for sharing. Now all you need is a DME readout on the HSI!  ;)
