• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Sarajevo Approach!

SOH-CM-2024
Developed by the Bundesluftwaffe Transall jockeys during the Yugoslavian conflict to stay out of possible ground fire during approaches.
Quite impressive how they literally dive into the final from altitude.

I seem to remember they called it the Khe Sanh Approach, as it was first used in replying the outpost of the same name during the Vietnam War.
 
Reminds me of something I read about Space Shuttle pilots in training getting the heebie jeebies when all they saw out the windscreen at 2000ft and 350kts was desert and no sky.
