Landed a full 747/4 at night with the worst winds I have ever seen. Captain pulled off the landing of his career. I have never been so impressed with someones skill, and never been so happy I wasn't flying!
Been on a few of those in the classic going into ANC. Brakes in the red on taxi in! Had one FO give up his landing to the Captain on one of those. I respect the guy for that.
