I recall watching a tv programme in which a current BBMF Lanc pilot was remarking to a World War Two veteran Lanc pilot that he found it almost impossible to do a satisfactory three point landing in a Lanc, and asking the vet what the secret was to a successful three point landing.

The WW2 pilot replied ;

"No one ever did a three Pointer in a Lanc unless they were an absolute expert,"

And then adding as an afterthought,

"And most of the absolute experts got it wrong anyway...."
