YS Micro-Challenges
Last night, I watched by Nerdcubed that was a marathon of "micro-challenges" done in GTA V. In it, he takes a collection of challenges which can be done in a minute or two, and attempts them. This got me thinking: what would it be like to try and do a YS version of this?
This is where this thread comes in: I'm asking all of you to come up with offline YS-based challenges (yes, offline) in this same format. That is, fun things to try and accomplish that could be attempted in just a couple of minutes. Regardless of whether I succeed or fail at doing them, I'll try these in a single take, and make the end result into a video! Also, if not enough people respond o̶r̶ ̶i̶f̶ ̶a̶n̶y̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶s̶u̶g̶g̶e̶s̶t̶i̶o̶n̶s̶ ̶a̶r̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶o̶ ̶s̶i̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶/̶o̶r̶ ̶e̶a̶s̶y̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶b̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶, I'll just try and make up my own challenges.

Re: YS Micro-Challenges
Ha I gave that a go once. It'll fit - just - if you go the 737, but she hasn't got the thrust for the vertical sections.
You can do this with any map, by adding a "mission" file to the end of the LST definition (see SMALL_MAP). What's cool about the .yfs file is you can set environment parameters, such as fog, or wind, and even in the vertical direction.
My Challenge:
Create a custom map/mission file to do a base leg approach to a carrier, at night, in maximum fog, in a 30 knot cross wind. You will need ILS.
