ltr450rider Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 How fast was the conveyor belt moving? Sideways at 3,000,000 mph Quote
beau Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Nothing like looking out the side window to see where you're goin'! That pilot is one gutsy (or very very stupid) SOB. Quote
dunefreak Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 DAYUM! That was some pretty good recovery...close call! Quote
Cracker Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 Is that why we have runways in several directions? Quote
vegas style Posted March 4, 2008 Posted March 4, 2008 i think i have landed like that before..... well maybe not quite like that but i felt like it. look out the side window and see nothing but ground then sky..... after watching the video remember they had to circle and try again Quote

Sand Saw Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 The worst part is, I just read that after the attempt, the pilot told air controllers not to use "that" runway and switched to one running the proper direction to the wind!! Whos more stupid, the 17 year veteran pilot who actually attempted the landing, or the controllers who told him to use that runway?? I know I would be one PO'D MOFO passenger to find out this info after the fact!! Quote
