sorry to say it but that approach to the ship in video 1 doesnt appear to be a very good one at all. looks way too slow, looks way too low. If he'd flown a normal profile instead of hanging around to the side, he may have made it to the deck when the donkey quit. Only my personal opinion from the video footage. But what do i know as ive only landed offshore a few times.

I'd love to know who teaches this sort of approach.
