scary landing

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your pilot speaking, thank you for flying KLM Asia today and i would like to take this time to remind you upon exiting the aircraft to kindly remove the seat cushions from your arses.

Great skill shown by the pilots

Maybe a more skilled pilot wouldn't have had so much drama during finals? We didn't see any other aircraft land for comparison.

Which doesn't mean that the pilot doesn't have skill it's just we don't know how good or bad he/she really is from that landing alone.

Positive comment terminated....

I'm seeing a lot of pilot-induced oscillations in this one.

Still good flying, perhaps over-controlling a little bit. Hard to simulate this kind of thing.

So Holland has been as windy as here too, eh?

Good landing though, I'd say Tchocky was right there, and that the pilot was perhaps over-controlling it a little, but it's easily done in a situation like that. Ultimately he or she got it on the deck in one piece, and you know what they say about landings you can walk away from.

I'm with my buddy Schroeder and Tchocky: on balance I think he probably did it to scare the crap out of the Germans. My wife can do this with our car.

I read a story where the pilot, after a rough landing was greeting the passengers as they left the plane and this old woman asked him if the plane was shot down

Bugger! It looks just like a R/C model landing. That pilot earned his pay for sure.
