You should be a bit high on your approach just in case you run out fuel, so you can glide to the runway. Also deploy gear at the last second, and stay the highest possible speed on your approach.

SkyTrail · July 18, 2020, 2:04am

yes I will do that! thanks for the advice!

Gabriel_Gava · July 18, 2020, 2:04am

I think you won’t have any complications

SkyTrail · July 18, 2020, 2:04am

ok thanks for the motivation!

You’ll have plenty.

i’m certain you’ll make it, i might be wrong, but it says 26:10 or something like that, with your destination at about 8 minutes, i’m pretty sure you’ll make it, but don’t take my word for it
