Approx 47 hours on her now and she's running great with only two emergency landings so far :D

Nicely done!

I do prefer the commentary though.

Only 2 emergency landings...well, that just isn't trying hard enough :D :D :D

Thank you mate. In hindsight I could of done a commentary but as I settled down to fly I decided I didn’t have much to say as I was just going to relax and do the leg. I feared any commentary would have resulted in the odd old fart tedious observation about a cloud or a valley!

Yes emergency No1 was the deadstick landing at Lossie that I caught on ‘video’ and uploaded and the other was GREAT!. My sim crashed while I was mid air on a leg so I restarted at the closest point on the ground and took off, and lo, the port landing gear had not retracted. Luckily it was locked so landing was uneventful!
If I have anymore I will endeavour to make them more exciting mate!
