I hate it when I do that.

I found this interesting story that I thought others would like. It's about a 767 that ran out of fuel at FL410 and landed safely.

What an amazing story! It would be interesting to try to recreate this in FS. Did anyone manage to make the link to the FS item mentioned in the web page work? I just get an error message when I try it.
Regards....John

A very interesting article, I'm sure there was a movie made from this event, although I can't remember the name.

John the link didnt work for me either on the Flight Sim bit :(

Hi Sam,
Ah, it wasn't just a problem with my system then. Have to go and look for Gimli in FS and set up a flight to try it out.

I have saved the web page on my hard drive just in case.
