He's touching the runway plain with front and back wheels together. A plain has to "flair" before landing, then touchdown with the back wheels, and let the nose come down after on his front wheel.

Excellent analysis of the landing!
It's a miracle everyone survived.

At my kid's former private school in Kelowna, I went to an event with a bunch of the upper crust parents from that school and one of the people I chatted with was a pilot for WestJet. He had some really fast sports cars but I was asking him what it is like to fly a plane. Like how gentle do you have to be on the controls to stay in control of the plane, or are passenger jets pretty agile these days?

He told me that planes fly themselves 90%+ of the time and for the majority of a flight you could sleep or do a crossword puzzle. The only thing a pilot worries about is if you hit some chop and you need to make an altitude adjustment so the feed train doesn't slam into the roof and the cart doesn't land on someone's grandma.

Here in Canada, we had a Toronto principal who unalived himself over being mocked by a DEI "specialist":

Cutting words, indeed! Ruthless mockery that is backed by the state.

I dated a woman who was a pilot, she took me for a flight in her dad's cessna one day and scared the shit out of me with the stunts she pulled. Flying is shit, worst form of travel possible. I have no doubt some women are incredible pilots, but the whole idea of DEI is that the bar is low so anyone can be a pilot, regardless of IQ or skill. Just pay for the hours required, pass a shit exam, or bribe your way, and you have a pilot's license.

Pretty much.

The "desirable" version of DEI's now in charge of things thought it'd be a good idea to abruptly dismantle the FAA so they can strong-arm privatize it for personal monetary reasons.

Who woulda thought the consequences would be so instantaneous?

At least da libz are being pwnd tho.

as the face book reel showed, it was a text book landing, the wheel or tyre went
