Alliance Plane Now Circling Rottnest after Taking Off
Which equates to 300fpm in pilot terms. Hopefully the Captains on his A game on the day. And you hope its not a dark and stormy night with crosswind and windshear. I've never had to do an overweight landing, but I've definitely seen Captains try to plow potatoes into the runway, even on good days.

I only saw that when I was an F/O. Once I became a Captain I never saw it again!

The A320 has a procedure for overweight landing, basically the main issue is flap extension as speeds involved are higher. Land it gently, use max reverse and get the brake fans on afterwards. An engineering inspection is required afterwards.

When you get a call from the cabin saying that the brace signal should have been given prior to that impact

He's got one previous post, in 2020, which definitely does not look like media:
China Southern Flying College Jandakot
Instructed there in 1997 under Morris Tilak - what a legend he was.
Anyone know what Morris is up to now?
I had some great students, and some great dunces.
Sad news, in sad times.
