I was on a flight to San Fran several years ago. The landing was so smooth I couldn't tell when we were on the ground until I felt some of the roughness and cracks in the runway. When we were getting off the plan, the cabin crew was standing in the entrance so I told the captain how smooth it was (as if he didn't know already) and he was clearly very proud of it. I've always loved observing people doing things they love and excel at. That was one of those times. I'm sure from the outside it looked just like the KLM landing.

I had that super smooth landing once from Amsterdam to Oslo with KLM. Heavy fog and dark outside. We did not notice we had landed until the brakes kicked in. He delayed the engine reversal some seconds to give us that effect. People applauded standing in the aisles before deboarding until the captain came out from the flightdeck and bowed. It's a one in a lifetime landing. A perfect 10 in score.

Let's be honest, being an airline pilot, the KLM guy will brag about this landing on every party till the end of days. :D

As a former aircraft mechanic in the navy (F-14 tomcats), I've heard pilots say that it's not flying the thing that's hard, it's what to do in an emergency that makes a great pilot. Thank you for this, amazing.

00:14 : Co-pilot: "I smell something really gross." Pilot: "I know. I'm sitting in it."

That KLM pilot deserves a pay rise just for having zero wear on the tyres! Seriously impressive touchdown, butter isn't as smooth as that!

KLM landing was nothing short of majestic. Absolutely perfect.

I have MUCH respect for KLM. That airline rescued me and approximately 30 other passengers who were stranded in West Africa after SwissAir went bankrupt and forfeited our round-trip tickets. Phew! Props to this captain and all the others. But MUCH love and respect goes to The Royal Dutch, from this thankful passenger.❤🇳🇱❤

That first 380, don't know if anyone has ever flown the Bridge climb at JFK in the last two seat at the back of a 747. I'm telling you it's one heck of an experience especially after the immidittly leaft turn. If you'er sitting at a window, it's like the window is directly pointing towards down the water and you feel like you're going to fall out, almost touch the water. My favorite climb.

The A380 looks like it handled the banking with ease! JMO

The "Butter" landing . . . it's definetly one of the smoothest landings I have ever witnessed!

The display at Farnborough back in 2008 when the A380 was new was a frightening watch from close quarters, the tight turns by a large aircraft was and still is one of my fondest memories.

KLM are an amazing airline. I chose them before for long haul and didn't regret it, even when I missed my return flight - it was all taken care of and they automatically booked me onto the same flight next day at no extra charge.

So where is the part where the A380 banked "too steeply"? Everything was fine, no problem at all, no drama, no excitement, no incident, nothing.

2:10 - I don't think I've ever seen a smoother landing than that. Wow.

I've never heard of the term "butter landing" until now but I certainly can see why it's given that name now! 👌

That was a great clip. That really was butter. And cool to see the F-15 use the hook. Never saw that before.
