Landing's easy :D

For commercial, I remember you put in these signal numbers for the runway and it shows you where to go with the arrows and shit..then there 4 lights next to the run way..2 red and 2 white mean youre perfect, 3 white and 1 red means your a bit too high and 3 red and 1 white means youre too low.
You're basing this off Flight Simulator? :D

Yeah, there's a way to remember that:

Red over white - you're alright
White over white - you're high as a kite
White over red - you're dead

I just put the machine on the tarmac and call it a day.
With the smaller planes, it's easy, you don't really look at the instruments much, but you still have to. But with those fat motherfuckers...

Yeah.

From wiki:

While the specific Tarmac pavement is not common in some countries today, many people use the word to refer to generic paved areas at airports, especially the airport ramp or "apron", near the terminals despite the fact that many of these areas are in fact made of concrete. This term seems to have been popularised when it became part of the news lexicon following live coverage of the Entebbe hijacking in 1976, where "Tarmac" was frequently used by the on-scene BBC reporter in describing the hijack scene.[5] The Wick Airport at Wick in Caithness, Scotland is one of the few airports that still has a real Tarmac runway.

Tarmac is a registered trade mark and is sometimes wrongly used as a generic term in British English to refer to an asphalt type road or pathway surface.

    I heard some of the bigger ones actually "land themselves."

    Especially the B-52, even with its odd arrangement of landing gear.
    When I was your age, sonny, I was putting P-40's on dirt in China, so WHAT THE FUCK IS THE PROBLEM?
