Long landing at Innsbruck

This Russian pilot comes in to land at the Innsbruck Airport, missing the touchdown point and finally touching down 2/3 of the runway later. Guess some days are better that others…

Phantom low

There is a saying: “Given enough thrust, even bricks can fly… the F-4 Phantom is proof of that!” Check out this German F-4 Phantom as it pushes the limit further down with every pass. Must have been quite a spectacular sight, especially that last low pass.

It is no surprise that this Lufthansa Airbus A320 was nearly blown off the runway by crosswind as it attempted to land at Hamburg on RWY 23. The pilot managed […]
