Try the Shuttle Training Aircraft (STA).

At 37,000 feet, and abeam the intended point of landing, the instructor pilot:
Lowers the main landing gear to act as speed brakes/increase drag
Selects reverse thrust,
Activates simulation mode, activating the shuttle pilot's controls.

The shuttle pilot then lowers the nose of the aircraft to increase speed to 300 knots, and descends in a 20-degree dive approach. The thrust reverses are stowed at 32ft to go round.

Then there's this:

On 21 March 1944, the "Belle of Texas" had its hydraulic system holed by enemy fire. They landed on Tarawa and used crew parachutes tied off to the fuselage to slow down.

Drag chutes
 

The B47 would fly the entire instrument pattern with its drag chute deployed. Primitive engines, little acceleration and a fairly clean airframe. Lots of profile drag preferable.

Indeed the Victor used its chute on all landings as it had tiny wheels and b****r all brakes. It took about 5 secs to develop fully and was a very re-assuring feeling when it did. When Victors were being scrapped and being left around the bazaars as fire hulks, I had to take one into Hal Far. Very short runway so had to practice streaming it in the air so it bit just in the flare. Needed to touch down in first 400 ft at Hal Far on a runway that begins on the edge of a cliff. Fascinating exercise but it worked.

"Even more inspiring was seeing an F4 at Wildenwrath dragging the barrier round the circuit. "

Got peppered by the debris on my moped. Just passed through the overshoot on 27 when H....P.... went by.

I know a good lawyer.

I think I still have my F-4 land-away notes, which included photographic instructions on how to repack a 'chute. It took a bit of work, and the advice from the linies in the know was just to stuff it all in, lock the door and hope for the best when you got back home.

:eek:
Why? Won't the fitter stay still while someone tries to shove a packed 'chute up his er... chute? :}
