A monkey can fly an aircraft in the air. It takes a pilot to land and it takes a good pilot to make a skilled landing

Another great approach and landing video - this time the classic MD-11 landing at Quito. Not easy. Brilliant video!

Did you happen to notice the blonde First Officer with the pony-tail hairdo?

I'm so in love with her that I won't be able to sleep tonight. That is the most attractive Pilot that I have ever seen!!!!

And, oh yes, complex approach to a 10,000 ft high airport in a MD-11. Done with typical Germanic and Gerwomanic precision.

- Yes I did notice! N. European women are in my mind the sexiest on the planet - along with some from California - and that's a result of cultural mixing over many years. :romance-hearteyes:

Did you see the pilot's expression on touchdown? :D Must have been quite a hard landing. I've been in many very hard landings but that's what these passenger jets are built for.

That was Fun!

The trouble is, I have so much fun hopping from one grassy air strip to the next during my daily explorations in my little Cessna, Microlight, Gyrocopter, etc, aircraft, that I quite forget how much fun/educational it is to use my Bendix-King radios to keep in contact with ATC during the whole flight (Flight Following)!

ATC get very annoyed with me!... :lol: ...!

I must wheel my trusty Beech Baron 58 out again and practice my acquired Radio navigation skills again!.... :D ...!

Paul.... :mrgreen: ...!

If I had to fly as her Captain, All of my landings would be............Hard!


All kidding aside, she really is an intelligent and professional Pilot. But , on the "lay-over" she proved to be very charming and sweet. Thats my kind of woman, Smart and Sweet, my Wife is like that, and I love it.
