Was there something wrong with the plane, that may have put him in a land or land situation...


To quote a movie, "Yea we are going to land alright!, But the word is Crash!"

Anyone know the whole story behind that, or is it just a viral video one of you guys drummed up on the internet.
The second time I played it I heard the sound track - it was just the guy filming commenting. Of course there could have been extenuating circumstances It could also have been exactly what it **looks** like - a poor approach to a landing, what looks like a badly timed flare, followed by an extensive float, a headwork error not to go around, and a final ending in the sand.
In any case - we should all put ourselves in a similar situation and decide how s/he would have handled the situation differently and maybe such a thing won't happen to us!
