Longer ron: we always used the airbrakes on landing as it increased the drag which meant we had more power on to give us better throttle response.
Thanks PH...yes I realised that - as I had added - when I first saw the pic I had thought it was an undershoot - it took me another look to realise that it was prob a x wind
...that lens effect !!
Lovely action shot though and thanks for filling in the details for us
