Feather#3 ... thats exactly what I thought the first time I saw it.....and I know nuffin about landing big jets.....

I would say they learned to flare in the TB10's......just forgot when the computers said hand fly it yaself!!!


PS Edit: Just watched it again, he does flare a bit over the body angle of the approach.... but clearly not enough sooner. Mind you he did keep it on the runway......I am not sure it would have been reusable if that was me
