Landing the Vega at Courchevel (LFLJ), a French "altiport"; so-named because of it's sloped runway. Thanks to Guy Nemoz for creating the scenery, and Don Lively for translating/packaging the install; the default FS9 field is nothing like the real thing. This is one of the hardest landings I have ever done; the Vega has a big radial engine up front and will nose-over if brakes are used too aggressively, and it lacks wing flaps which would greatly aid low-speed handling. Notice that I used "spot" view on this one, because forward vision isn't very good in this airplane; especially at low speeds in a 'pitch-up' attitude...
