That landing was complete ****. It's one thing to use correct technique and plant it on, but it's another to just have a lack of flying skills.
By fine job, i meant it's a miracle he kept it on the pavement (if not the CL) and didn't fold the gear or bend metal.
What he should have done was divert like the hundreds of other flights that day.
Clear enough for ya now?
(What's the technique over there at Mesa?)
