Credit where it is due
I was SLF from Windhoek to OR Tambo on SA 077 last evening,26th Feb 2015, spectacular cloud formations & thunderheads, full pax, couple of course changes to avoid weather, earlier arrival than sched. Touchdown by the Captain an example of the fine art of aviation - perfect greaser! Seated row 18 of A330 200, -that is directly above main gear- and I only heard the rumble of the tyres, there was NO bump. Thinking back- None of the turns made for Wx was unco-ordinated, I never felt that the ball was out of the middle. Additionally, after smooth power reduction at top of descent there was no throttle-chasing on approach, nor sudden power chop at threshold. Taxi was equally smooth.
It is always a rare pleasure when you encounter a professional who is also an artist at what they do. Well done Sir! Give that man a Bell's!
