What Do U Think About This Landing?

Tue Aug 07, 2007 10:00 am

If found it on liveleak.com and it seems that this is an emergency landing filmed by the co-pilot! What do you think?

Emergency landing where?!?

There was a windsock, but it definately looked more like a coastal road. Must have a lot of emergencies there!

I'd say it was pretty good. I'm not so sure it was an emergency though. I saw what looked like a windsock off to the left during the roll out. Not too sure though.

Well...just to inform u...as far as I can see...it isnt a windsock Im sure of that but I know that in India or Asia they put those red flags everywhere...think it is something religious but definitively not a windsock! About the emergency im not 100% sure but that is why I ask here to get to know more about...maybe another member knows more about!

Well one thing's for sure - that thing definitely isn't a runway...

What kind of emergency was it? Engine seemed to be running properly. Landing looked good considering the narrow road.

Yes ur right AirTranTUS...was thinking the same...well there was no additional information available at the side I've downloaded this vid...they only mentioned that it was an emergency landing filmed by the co-pilot...that was all so when looking at the vid...everything looks fine...the engine sounds running good...he stalled a bit before touch down but I guess that this is due to the "short field" landing technique they use in those planes...well maybe they got very low on fuel...but anyway I think the landing was done very good on that narrow road...great piloting skills...isn't it?
