Aviation Photo #1199450 Antonov An-12TB - Avial NV

What kind of touchdown is this!

Ooops.. dropped the vodka!

What an awesome and unique photo! It makes you wonder what this aircraft CAN'T do! Stunning.

Great Landing, very soft touch!!!
Clear and amazing shot!

Due to extra strong structure (particularly - the nose leg) of this outstanding machine those slap-dash pilots have one more chance to stay alive and safe...

by the way - great shot!

Those crazy Russian pilots are at it again ;D

Maybe it's a backwards take off ;)

We have great shots like this too seldomly!!!

Good pic, that wasn't a good landing good for a record

Whoa. Try this with the DC9 :)

Amazingly, the aircraft is still one piece.

There's a video on Youtube about that. There were no flare at all.

Just weard

Nice photo, but wonderful touch down it isn't.Could have written the a/c off and almost certainly damaged it quite seriously.

Whow, I also have some pictures from this type of Antonov, Landing at Schiphol exactly as this one did, how strange...

So? this is how I land! any problem? hehe

Excellent shot! It makes feel better about some of my not so good landings!

Guys, the touchdown is very smooth. They still have plenty of lift even at low speed due to four props blowing large flaps. So this landing is little bit overspeeded one and they have to maintain negative angle of atack to make her descend just some centemeters per second! It's not crual to touch front wheels first, this is only our warped judgment to think so.

Sorry captain, i kinda pushed the control coloumn forward instead of backward!!!!!......lol

yuck landing
