The 777 shots are spectacular. The music is rather good as well............ Check out the 757 landing at Toncontin in the Honduras: "don't be afraid"..........  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_z5HtME9n8 Last edited by Brian Carlton; 08-12-2008 at 07:00 PM.

Wow, that second one, there's almost no flare at all! They have to dive the plane into the runway!

Here is the view from the flight deck...

No wonder I love watching aircraft and flying! Commercial is so mundane...

I looked at some of the other videos and it looks like they took out the hill at the end of the runway that made things "interesting..." The approach looks pretty tame now.
I wonder if it's on FS - I'll have to give it a try.

Very cool! Some changes of pants were probably needed when they landed.
