Ok, yes its a big airplane. But the runway is PLENTY long! They were trying to make the turnoff? Please.
Yes they were trying to make a turn off, not to show off, but there is only one turnoff on that runway that the 380 can take. If they had missed that intersection one of two things would have happened.
1. They would have had to reverse engines 2 and 3 to
backup to the intersection. Hardly a brilliant idea.
2. Wait until a tow could come out to the runway and push them back to the intersection. The most logical, but it require the runway to be shut down at the busiest airport in the world, as OSK is the busiest airport in the world by far while the EAA airshow/meeting is ongoing.
Besides that, it was not hard of a landing, just embarrassing with all those video cameras and the thousands of people watching.
