For a second I was wondering why I’ve never heard of this before until now. Then I saw the view from the runway and realized this was a computer rendering. However the approach to the runway view was pretty damn good that I couldn’t tell the difference until it landed. Good job.

The 3D artist forgot to have the door flying off.

KSP? Jeb will be happy to finally come back!

There's no other way to describe this. It looks like a shuttle with its face cut off.

[Aldebaran]

the movement of the camera adds a lot of realism, great job!

[gedstrom]

I didn't realize it was a CG landing until I saw the view from immediately off the runway as it landed. It was then I realized they wouldn't have a person standing THAT close to the runway! Excellent rendering!

[gmlviper]

How many engines do we want on this?
YES

[jonnyboi]

Absolutely beautiful... they make it look so easy. What great CGI skills 👏

[mylesjarvis]

That was extremely realistic. Great job!

At first glance I thought it was a real video of a Boeing X-37, but i wondered why there are so many engines. Then I looked on a YT channel name. Good photorealizm.

No flaps, no exhaust, windows, smoke off the landing gear...lol you almost had me 😂

[DebraJean]

Had me going. Wondered how I could have totally missed hearing about this

[ernesthill]

I must admit, this is truly realistic looking 😮

[SirCharlesWeatherby]

I think I just saw the door fly off! Goooo, Boeing!!!

[FelipeCocco]

Bro I hope you do this professionally... what an insanely good render!

[michaelsalcau]

The shuttle was the most beautiful bird !

[spray_cheese]

Even with my fairly keen eye to seeing through renders. I kept second guessing myself until the smoke. Smoke is tricky, I don’t blame you one bit. Great work!

Good render, but the vehicle is moving way too slowly during landing. Watch a Shuttle landing for reference, the speeds are very high. Wing lift increases with speed. (The wings are not very efficient and are minimal in size to reduce weight. This isn't a passenger aircraft, it's a flying shipping container. The Space Shuttle was often described as a flying brick, at least in terms of its aerodynamic efficiency. Think of that when modeling and determining landing speed.)

Well done...imagine just another year of this!

Not gonna lie had us in the first half
