Recorded it, watched it tonight - had me on the edge of my chair ! John did a wonderful job, but he was damned lucky all the same. When you think of all the ways in which it might have gone wrong, the hair rises on the back of your neck !
Churlish to cavil, and I've been away from the cockpit for nearly 60 years, and maybe I'm missing something. But why not fly the helicopter down a 3º approach at correct Cessna speed and ask John to stay with it (no, I don't mean formation , but say 50 yards out). Chopper stands off 50 yards to the side of centre line, says "all yours, John" as the threshold comes up. (I'd say safer than telling a chap with no ASI visible "more throttle, less throttle" - might have stalled and gone in !)
Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing ! Danny.
