so, here is a landing, off a circling approach with virtually no straight in time to stabilize, at an odd airport.

i have a feeling he could have planted it very near the 1000' mark but held off for a smoother touchdown.

i also have a feeling that few on this forum could handle this landing as well as the actual pilot (and gee that plane sure looks familiar , distinctive paint job).

It is better of course to touchdown nicely on that 1000' marker, on speed, everything nice, but reality is this> The plane looks like it can be used again without major repairs so this qualifies as a "GREAT LANDING" as opposed to a ''good landing'' in which you can only walk away.

So, a lot of monday morning quarterbacking, but few willing to play ball.
