Not following your own advice Tecman? I thought very hard about posting this video to PPRUNE because I suspected people would get the wrong ideas about flight training in my country. I reiterate, this film was edited to show the worst landings of the day - it does not show ALL the landings (including mine).

That day was the roughest conditions I have ever had to deal with. After my first overshoot I shelved all notions of competing and went into survival mode, my goal being to land safely without bending anything. I am happy to report that everyone landed safely without injury or damage to the aircraft.
