Luke, 05-30-07, SPPY-SPHZ, 72, BGAN021, A-4 Skyhawk RNZAF, .SPJR.SPJB. It wasn't uuntil the final destination that I realised this plane has no reverse thrust. Dug into the ground at SPJR, runway was long enough and asphalt. The sky hawk as an un-bridalled descent speed (KIAS) which makes steep approaches difficult. Managed to land perfectly at SPJB on a short dirt strip in an inactive volcanoe. I think the difference is the rate of descent required for each particular airport. This was a plane made in the dawn of the jet fighter age and lacks much of the mod-cons of later jets. It's predecessor the F-4 had reverse thrust, decent brakes, adequate spoilers and the weight made it more manageable than the A-4. Still properly used, it's easy to see why this was always a popular jet fighter which is still used by air-forces inc. the USN since it was built in 1954.
