🌬️ This one was a wild ride from start to finish.
Flying into Kozani, 🇬🇷 Greece, I faced violent winds and severe turbulence over the Pindus Mountains ⛰️ in my virtual Cessna 152.
🛫 Takeoff from Leros was already tough with strong gusts tossing me around. I relied on ADF (Automatic Direction Finder) and partial autopilot to navigate through brutal crosswinds.

👀 On approach, everything looked lined up — but wind shear had other plans. I had to abort the landing last second, went full throttle, retracted flaps, and tried a tight 180° turn to recover...
❌ But I made one critical mistake — too much rudder, not enough throttle. I stalled just short of the runway and slammed into the terrain.
💥 This was my roughest attempt to land so far in MSFS 2020.

🛠️ My DIY cockpit features:
🎮 Saitek yoke & rudder pedals
📻 Dual radio panels & full nav/autopilot controls
🎚️ Two throttle quadrants & switch panel
🖥️ Two touchscreens running Air Manager
🌀 Two knobsters for smooth instrument control
🪚 All in a home-built setup made from scrap plywood and 3D printed parts!
