Well, have to admit, my curiosity got the best of me and had to look at your PIREP, hmmm, never landed a "cruise" speed, well at least the taxi to the gates was quick . . . It happens to all of us at one time or another, I suppose. As Michael says, just put it behind you . . . and keep flying . . .

Happens to the best of us. That's why it's a simulated world.

Might I ask, though, what runway you were aiming for? Primary KBOS landing rwys are 4R/22L and 27... wink

Sorry for your landing there, I know how it can go when your frame rates take and go way down. Can make it really hard to fly the flight sim. Better luck next time

It wasn't you; it was the computer. When frames rates go slow some landings can become impossilbe. And your speed seemed a little high. Could have tryed a touch and go landing.
