Hmm few rusty neurons motivating now, seem to remember the Luftwaffe final "test job" at TTTE was a four ship formation landing with max reverse thrust/ braking starting at the back with a fixed point pass/fail ....but they had it cushy with full use of high lift....we line swine got the nod to come and watch as it was bloody impressive and Germanic, 'natch.

a F3 did a 67 landing at LEU mid 2000's[think] entire TASF was outside watching the drama evolve, it only stopped when it caught the bottom end cable having exhausted all other possibilities.....
