Crazy DC-6 approach and landing on dirt strip.
Great footage of what I assume is a last flight of a South African DC-6 into a tight dirt strip. Look how close it comes to the trees on short final!

For once I entirely agree with con-pilot. I feel sad that the modern generation of aviators with their fbw machines will probably never get to hone skills like that in a lifetime of flying.
