Outhouse,
you must be joking right? So your judgement of a professional pilot stands or falls with the smoothness of a landing?
Has it ever occured to you that a smooth landing is a far cry from a safe landing in many cases? That it probably was a rather deep landing eating up runway length
That a soft landing in a modern airbus in many cases is just a question of leaving the autothrust on long enough to hear several retard call outs...
To the guy flying desks....
I dont know which position you will assume here but I wish you all the best...we need people with real experience. As long as you dont forget where you came from....being the flightdeck!
