The Apache pilot will be buying his mate beers for the rest of his life.
That mustang was so sos so close to digging those props in
The second apache must have lost tail rotor in it's landing if ya ccall that a landing
NH90 crash seen many times. lessons to be learnt from that
Looks like the F16 had steerage problems to go off into the dirt there, or that was intentional due to other things happeneing we could not see.

... Looks like the F16 had steerage problems to go off into the dirt there, or that was intentional due to other things happeneing we could not see. Extreme fogging www.f-16.net/news_article4523.htmlAccording to the report, the aircraft's environmental control system caused extreme fogging that completely obscured the pilot's visual cues and severely affected correct execution of normal landing procedures. The pilot applied the defog procedure without success. Without the necessary visual clues, the pilot did not apply adequate aerobraking which increased his landing distance. |

The Mustang incident was also caused by a mechanical fault ( cant remember where I read it , could have even been on this forum ) . The engine went " off song " on finals ( you can hear it in the video ) , causing him to land short and hit that step that kicked him up .Obviously a " go around " wasnt an option either .
