A good landing for once


I've put up a number of video clips of bad landings during 2013.  To start 2014 off on a better note, here's perhaps the smoothest landing I've ever seen on video - so smooth I reckon the passengers hardly felt it.  It's a US Airways Airbus A330 landing at Manchester on August 30th, 2010. This one's definitely worth watching in full-screen mode.





You can read more about it here, including a detailed description of what makes that landing so special.  Congratulations to the pilot on a great job.

May 2014 bring smooth landings for all of us.
