I missed the actual 'heavy landing'. I walked towards the control tower, looked up at the Buffalo circling and gently descending just above me, then went into the tower.
As I started climbing the stairs, I heard a 'bang' which I thought was the door behind me closing then OC Flying and COEF both burst out of their doorways and went running up the stairs. I got to the first landing just in time to see Bill exiting the aircraft.
I had been outside in another portakabin finalising the flying programme for the following day, so I had to go back and re write it!!
