The way the wings on that A380 flex is staggering.

[storminnormin]

That was not only a smooth landing 🛬 but the smoothest blown tire I have ever seen. Kudos to training and making it look normal.

[ayzhienturtle]

that last clip of the a330 spool-up at the end sounded like one of the best i've heard from this channel

[gaminglegofan]

We genuinely thank you for 2 extra seconds of aviation ❤✈️

The doppler effect in the flare sequence is amazing.

:20 Hard landing, yes? Bad landing, no. We used to call them, "Carrier landings." Based on his crab angle and the sound of the wind, that was a well-executed carrier landing, i.e., just get it on the deck!

The longest runway for Oshkosh is 2400m. Firm landing that's all.

Nothing like looking out the planes window and seeing a Rolls Royce badge on the engine pod 😎

[seegurke]

in very hard crosswind, short or narrow runways and when its wet, you should do a firm landing to get rid of the lift force as fast as possible in order to ensure that you have your aircraft on the ground and especially in the touchdown zone. I give the guys the benefit of the doubt and think that this is what they tried. its not about a "nice" landing, its about a landing in the touchdownzone. BTW so many PAX talking about "nice" landing dont have any clue about what they are talking about. We do it every day and they fly once in a year and have an opinion. everyone is a critique nowadays i guess.

the best 3 minutes. Keep 'em coming.

The livery on that Hungarian plane is absolutely beautiful!

[aerodaan]

The forces a landing gear can withstand are remarkable!

[bugbuddy]

As always, great video, thank you so much for putting Your videos on YouTube.

[ilovetotri]

So nice to see a landing that is "butter" at Heathrow, with the RollsRoyce logo on the engine!

[miketobin]

Those so-called flares where awesome, as was that flyby at the end. Bravo!

[Thegoatedcat-xy]

That first clip was smoother than ryanair’s smoothest landing

[ashleydavis]

I’m pretty sure that landing was textbook…short runway, strong crosswind…set her down safely but with intention. Nice job captain.

[tobyray]

I don’t think he forgot to flare, I think he planted it firmly due to the crosswinds

[ed]

The Su-22 definitely didn’t forget to flare, but that’s a different type of flare 😆

Unfortunately today, in italy, one of the frecce tricolori suffered a bird strike on takeoff, the pilot ejected at the last moment but the debris from the plane crashing killed a five year old girl and injured the rest of her family.
My condolences to the family, condoglianze.
