Bottom line is a dam good job and coolness under pressure. Touch down
attitude and air speed could not have been better.

I agree. In watching the landing, I could tell he was flying it on rather
than simply increasing the angle of attack into the touchdown. A real smooth
job.
I actually couldn't tell the instant he put it on the ground :-))

As someone posted earlier, the ground effect must be pretty intense when
the wing gets 6" off the runway.


On my health. It's been poorly. Age catches up with us all eventually

I'm sorry to hear that John. I hope things get better for you. I've just had
a 4 level lumbar laminectomy myself.
I agree, it's no damn fun getting old is it? :-))))))))))))

True, but as my grandfather used to say ... it beats the alternative. :-)
