    Imagine living in a peaceful and beautiful city of Innsbruck and seeing a B747 only 10 meters over your roof wabbling everywhere while doing 400 knots.

      I swear to god, once when I was about 10 years old, I saw a commercial airliner flying not more than about 100-200 feet above my house, or my whole housing area anyway. No one seems to believe me when I tell the story and it kinda is at the point when I feel like maybe I misremember it, but I'm SURE it really happened. One second there was nothing going on, it was just a nice sunny summer's day nice and quiet, next second there's this almighty horrendous noise, me and some friends were all dicking around outside, and we all look in the direction of this noise and there's this commercial jet at an altitude that seemed no more than maybe 3 houses high, not huge like a 747, but still very very large, and it was almost blink and you missed it. Then it went behind some houses, the noise subsided almost as fast as it came, and then we saw this little black dot moving through the sky at what looked like many thousands of feet up some time later, maybe 10 or 15 seconds. It may or may not have been the same plane. When I think back now, I think maybe not, since to go from right on top of my house to a little black dot in 10-20 seconds seems highly unlikely for an airliner.
      A terrifying but awesome moment. This was around the same time as the Libyan Pan-Am hijacking where the plane came down on the Scottish border, so it was no joke to be honest. What puzzles me is that only me and those kids I was with seemed to see or hear it. No one else did.

    "Ladies and gentlemen, this is Kelsey from the, uhh, flight deck. We've started our descent into, uhhh, Innsbruck and should be on the ground in uhhh few minutes. The final takes too long at, uh, Vref, so we're just going to take it up to about, uh, 400 knots at 200 ft and then throw out all the, uh, flaps and spoilers about 30 seconds before touchdown, so it might be, uhhh, a little bumpy back there for a bit, but we should be into the gate a little early this afternoon. Just ignore that, uhh, clacking sound and the various horns coming from the flight deck. I'm trying to get, uhhh million points or so on this landing, but you should probably go ahead and review the, uhh, brace procedures and exit locations just in case. Enjoy the rest of the flight and we'll have you on the ground very soon."

      This meant that the aircraft was about to enter the LZ area at high speed and “weapons hot” (weapons armed and ‘safeties’ released / ready to fire). The radio call was a final warning for any ‘friendly’ forces to stand clear or take cover before rockets/chain-guns/machine guns were fired. Beau Guitar Baby!

    Excellent! I love your channel. :) Comparing notes... I'm on a Mac, so I fly X-Plane. I've done this with many airliners, including the 747... Takeoff, retract everything, and accelerate straight ahead to 350-ish knots, staying low. When a couple of miles away from the airport, pull up into a steep climb. At about 200 knots, start pulling back more, into a loop, and when you're inverted and nearly stalled, dump everything, as you did in your flight. (Since you're below all warning speeds, everything will deploy.) Then, roll 180 degrees on the downline, so you're right-side-up for the landing, and manage your airspeed by keeping the throttles closed, and perhaps do a sideslip, if needed. (I've also used reversers while on the downline... Don't know if the actual aircraft would allow that.) You should be able to land at nearly normal speeds! Boeing wouldn't approve, but it's fun!
