Landing the King Air B200 at Deep Water Cay, Bahamas. The runway is 4000ft long but very narrow in places which makes for a tricky landing at times. When I arrived at the island in this video it was actually fogged in and I held for 15 mins till the fog blew off the field.

  • @MrElSatan You seem like a nice person

  • like a boss!

  • @SaulBasley Thanks for clearing that up about the torque increasing with decreasd RPM's. I'm a little embarrased that it's something I ought to have known, or at least should have occured to me in the first place.

  • @tedlgn Again with the not putting props forward?? He landed at 1900rpm (a well recognised technique to reduce passenger noise when landing on a non performance limiting runway). You will do ZERO damage to the engines using this technique no matter how quickly you move them up, due to the fact they are free flow turbines. Banging them forward on approach from 1700rpm to 2000rpm yeah, gradual motion then otherwise you will damage the reduction gear box, not the engine.

  • @MiketheCFI Thanks Mike, I've got around a 1000 king air 200hrs and know my aircraft and systems, all these "experts" slating him for something they clearly know nothing about. Just a small point for your initial thoughts, the torque actually goes down when you put the props forward, coarser pitch means less torque output needed, in fact a common gotcha on KA is when bringing the props back after take-off is over torquing.

  • @SaulBasley That makes sense. I had thought it might have something to do with torque limits, but then my only King Air experience is with FSX (like all the other "experts" commenting here)

  • Nice landing. 

  • well done

  • Fantastic landing! It looked like you have to trim the trees on that approach.
