Now if you want to see a short landing the Mk1 Andover using full STOL really was impressive!

No chance. Bad crosswind day at Tengah, a SEP landed across the the RW and taxied straight in to the dispersal :ok:

Looked no better than the Tiffy.
Once saw the HP115, flew down the runway at Cranwell, touched down on the downwind piano keys and turned immediate right to the taxyway.

Ahh, Pontius, but it wasn't an operational aircraft ;)
I can remember a Jaguar landing and stopping on the piano keys at Indian Springs AFAF (Creech AB) around 2004.
It landed shorter than the Harrier, the F35 in the clip took longer than the Tornado did at ISAFAF.

Visiting Binbrook. watched a Lightning touch down, heard a screech and two bangs in quick succession, Lightning stopped incredibly quickly, had somehow landed with brakes on.
