Hey - in the first clip that you linked to, what is the second jet in the clip? It’s a high wing, 4 engined jet - it looks like a slightly larger Dash 8, but without the props. Can’t recall what that would be…
Dadgummit! I was just about to post that I thought it was a BAE 146 as well. I’ve been searching since I posted that - finally figured it out just a sec ago. Guess we don’t see things like that on this side of the pond… Thanks Needle! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bae_146
That pilot’s a moron. Everyone on that plane can thank him that they’re now 8" shorter. I kept thinking he was going to flare, flare, flare!!! but he never did…
Were you on the plane? Did you talk to the pilot? Could this have been the last attempt at landing due to low fuel and other airports in the area were closed?
Sure, it was a lousy landing but I would want to talk to the pilot first to see what happened.
