He walked away...and?? Seen many an aircraft land with landing gear failures and cant recal ONE single one where anyone has been injured as a result
I just cant see what 'skill' or 'excellence' he has displayed? If anything the safe landing would be more attributable to luck-as in situations like that all you can basically do is hold it off as much as possible-cant see what superior technique that was used that allowed them to walk away?
So what would be the alternative? What technique would you use that would not result in a safe landing??
