Embarrasing Flight

Andrew,

Well, maybe if I had been flying with you yesterday I wouldn't have
felt so bad. :-) Given the wind we had the day you and I went up that
landing wasn't something that would make me think less of you. In
fact I flew with another pilot from Mac Dan a few months back and we
were landing on Rwy 4 with a very gusty wind. His landing was similar
to the one you had in Linden, but I know he is a very good pilot so I
didn't think anything about it. I would fly with him again as quickly
as I would fly with you.

That's true. It was something like 2G4 that day at Linden, right? A real
howler.

[Okay, maybe a little more than that.]

BTW, here's an interesting point: When you set down, how far were you from
where the wake turbulance was still twirling? 1000'? 10'? I'd not worry
too much about getting down *now* in that scenario; think of it as a
short-field landing.
