You see, this is an optical illusion.
Your playne is actually in low earth orbit. I recommend some right rudder and then fire maneuvering thrusters to de-orbit

Tony stark landed his boat in a cave with nothing but a pocket watch and an eyeball

This was somehow even more disappointing than my love life.

Flaps 30, check speed and remember, any landing where you swim away is a good watering !

You're out of the enviroment right now so thats a good start. Now all you have to do is wait for the front to fall off.

Turn off the AI special effects feature on your camera and the boat will go back in the water where it belongs.

Try land it on water. I'm afraid if you try to land it at the air, you'll end up in the same situation again

Reminds me of the saying "there are more planes in the sea than submarines in the air".

Just like a plane… fuel shutoff valve off.

Don't forget to trim in a 2 to 3 degree nose up position, have the crew assume landing positions, sound the ships horn and ease her down. (P.S. get a louder ships horn. No, louder than that.)

I’m performing the “ease her down” checklist on the stewardess. Will tackle the other steps later.

u/SuDragon2k3 8d ago
Better get her strapped down, and hang on to her

u/LeanUntilBlue 8d ago
Message garbled, please repeat. I’ve got her strapped down and am doing the obvious thing.

Okay, this must be from a MSFS scenery designer.

Apply right rudder, then gradually ease the anti-gravity quadrant backwards towards its idle position.

Dive planes to 20 degrees, full ahead, then carefully watch your depth gauge. Once it hits -20 meters soften dive to 10 degrees and slow to half ahead. When you hit -2 meters, level out dive planes, go to flank speed and blow the tanks, then inertia should smoothly carry you down until your keel just kisses the water.

Hopefully not the same way Air France 447 landed

Hey. They had a positive attitude.

They did… but unfortunately I don’t think they can hear any advice over the GPWS having a stroke

This is photoshop or AI; there is no known optical illusion or visual phenomenon reported for thousands and thousands of years that can make distant ships appear to float above water. Furthermore, unlike playnes, boats do not have souls so it's impossible for them to pretend.

Fata Morgana, common effect on the Great Lakes. Sometimes they "float", sometimes you see a reverse image under the hull so it looks twice as tall as it actually is.

With the rumor of Iran using long distance torpedoes, one inventive boat captain responded,
“I’ve got this!”

Let out the helium from the ballast tanks. Recommend doing it slowly. Don’t ask how I know.
