Great photo! crazy pilot! bad aircraft!

A visitor from United States posted Sun August 19, 2007:
Indeed a dramantic moment: nose gear touching down first. OW!!

A visitor from Portugal posted Thu January 25, 2007:
Sorry but the 1057767 photo isn't "few moments later" but in fact is before. The grey building in 1057767 photo is the back of the fire depart. In 1057647, the fire dept is already visible. As Jorge said "after a hard touch down "jumping" and after this a little nose diving such close to the ground" as scary as it looks, the final picture it´s the dive after the "jump". Great job Madeira Spotters for the time spent.

Great picture!!! Bad landing...

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat November 11, 2006:
A great photo of a not so great landing. There is another pic in the library which shows this landing a few moments later-(1057767), and it still aint pretty!!

A visitor from Portugal posted Fri September 22, 2006:
I don't normally leave comments...but this piccture just made me say wow outloud in a room full of people, thanks for making me look silly!
And for you "visitor from Brazil" don`t talk about things you effectively don`t know!

Nice timing

A visitor from Uganda posted Wed August 9, 2006:
Just see the fireman in the background watching

A visitor from Romania posted Wed August 9, 2006:
Even though, it is a poor landing

A visitor from Switzerland posted Wed August 2, 2006:
Nice shot !!!

A visitor from Australia posted Fri June 30, 2006:
The exact moment when various orrifices tighten cannot be better documented

A visitor from Turkey posted Sat June 17, 2006:
Very good timing. It can not be windshear, if it was there should be a go-around. I think it is a bad landing. (but the excellent! stick ...?)

A visitor from Germany posted Wed June 14, 2006:
There is no such thing as a windshear from the back!
Probably meant a wind gust from behind,although it's rather unrealistic. It looks a lot more like a bad landing, trying to put it on the groung, despite a too high velocity for breaking the ground effect.

A visitor from Luxembourg posted Wed June 14, 2006:
What's that, a joystick failure?

A visitor from Portugal posted Sun June 11, 2006:
That was quite a scary momment. Glad nothing went wrong beside that. Great photo still. Good weather...

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun June 11, 2006:
I love everything about this shot....!!!!

A visitor from Brazil posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Scary landing.

A visitor from Spain posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Unbelievable! Exact moment, excellent shot.

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Beautiful colors, well framed. Poor nose gear!

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Look worse than it is. Most likely turbulence on landing, which is very common for this area, and a slight nose down landing approch is common

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Sat June 10, 2006:
WOW! Cool!
Ñongratulate!
The excellent photogaph!

A visitor from Canada posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Ahhaaaa...wheres the flare????

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
That ones going to hurt...jeez

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Damn,, it must been an UNcomftable landing for the passangers . A great pic 5*

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Nose down approach.

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
That looks like it's going to hurt.

A visitor from Mexico posted Sat June 10, 2006:
I wonder what the pilot was thinking at that moment. T.B.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat June 10, 2006:
Great shot Miguel! All I can say is ouch to the people sitting in row 1!

A visitor from United States posted Sat June 10, 2006:
