You should be if you made that landing with the NASA specified struts
touching down and settling 215,000lbs without thrust @ under 18 feet per second requires allot of skill
Congrats!!
....PS
All you have to do is accomplish that 50 times in a row but not miss the center line more than twice and you would qualify to sign up for the "list" @ NASA

a nice thought but....no the flight sim is enough i was quite amased when i landed to was relly fun from aproach to landing overall good pack. crashed that brick many times though.. most i would have walked away from! only broke main gear and was still able to vring the frong wheel down safely!

;D
