He is landing on 36 as far as I can work out from the video. (Oshkosh truck depot in the background, blue dot on the RWY close to the displaced thr markings etc)

Thatīs 8002 ft.......not marginal in dry conditions in an F-16, even with some fuel in the dollies and some crap in the travel pod.

I seen "a few" F-16 landnings from the TWR as an ATCO......leads landing looked like what you would expect. Wingman......waaay too fast even at first when the camera pics him up.
