Thats not a bad landing. Granted he had the brakes on right away. And the reverse thrusters too. And all flaps down WAY down. hahaha He did come in alittle sideways.

I thought that was actually a good landing for what the pilot had to work with for an airport. I flew into San Fran a few years back and I swear we going to crash in the water. It was extremely windy out there. I know quite a bit about planes but I didn't know that these had so many different flaps in the wings. I don't even know how we stayed in the air with that many flaps out.

Any landing you walk away from is a good landing. If you've ever watched planes land they are nearly ALWAYS landing with a crosswind, they are forced to use the rudder to adjust their yaw to go straight down the runway with the nose pointed toward the wind until the rear wheels touch down, then they can straighten the plane out.

Why not fly to Honduras? Imagine how much better those pilots must be at landing.

There is an insane airport in the Caribbean like that: Queen Juliana Airport:

I will say great pilot he's about touching the ass end of the plane on the hill side.

that is not to short for the 757 in the video or the smaller planes at the airport. You would be surprised how short a plane can stop.
they also come in over the beach like that in austraila too
