Don't know how (if any) of you are flying the PMDG 747 but if you are you will find these videos very Intresting. And some of you thought I was crazy for flying a 747 in a circuit!

I believe they were training Oasis Hong Kong pilots on the 747s. It took place at Manston (EGMH) in Kent England.

For those having trouble landing the 747 watch the PF using the throttles and yoke to see when he retards the throttle at about 20-30 feet after flaring 2 degrees (standard flare for a 747). Some people may be as intrested as I.
