I respect Centaurus' opinion, but, apart from the low level turn, I thought what a beautiful circuit. Tight, with a curved approach and a lovely touchdown well up near the beginning of the runway (well short of the displaced threshold but I guess they have dispensation), and a very short rollout.
Also looks like fun.
I have no expertise in flying an airliner, and I don't think they would do this with pax aboard or a commercial flight, but a very skilful handling display from inexpert vantage.
