Thats some nice flying there by 'The Dr', first time out aswell, pretty slick. Sometimes i'm lucky if I hit the runway, let alone the centre line.
Cheers,
TSC.

I think he is copying the real plane!
That is exactly how the real life pilot landed it yesterday.

Sure thing. I watched it live. Look here, on the
BBC News, there is a video on the page where you watch it.

I held her at about 150knts, it was a long runway, and I stoped rather quickly and taxied safely to the gate

For those of you who watched the video, that approach to runway didn't look that smooth, with the wings bending and all, and the touchdown also. Looks like those wings are REAL long, and not to mention those 4 HUGE engines. Just a thought.

The vid was awesome, nearly as awesome as your shot Doc.
