When I saw my first 747 climbing out of Honolulu in 1970, I said to myself, That a/c is going to crash, it is moving too slowly.

The MD11 is also a massive a/c, and watching it land in Narita, I had to remind myself, "Imagine the accelerations the Pilots are feeling." Slow is relative, and small things move "faster".
