The (new) pilot was practicing X-wind landings, apparently......
Spoke to the Old Man last night. He remembers the Freighter being late on a Southend-Ostende run. He watched it touch down at Southend, taxi towards the terminal with the doors being cranked open and the engines running down. Fifteen (yes, fifteen!!) minutes later it was airborne with his car and two others on board. Usually two largish cars and one small one. The pax sat at the back and he said it was EXTREMELY noisy!!
