crazy approach...reminds me of the St. Maartens landings, but more skill required

thats cool...my biggest problem with St Martin is looking at the boobs being flashed at me rather than where I'm putting the plane down. Good things it's a long runway :lol:

Theres a clip of a B-52 going into an "Accelerated Stall", and wadding it up into a ball of flames.... most everyone has seen it.

Same plane, same pilot in these clips leading up to the accident.

Check out the ridge passes, about 4:12 minutes in....



:nono:

after 8 years of aviation, with F-16s and 2 years after that at a flight school, that is one of the coolest landings i have ever seen. The coolest being a new pilot have a problem with his left side main landing gear not coming down and having to land gear up and ride the centerline tank to a complete stop w/o touching a wingtip. it was flawless.
