Passenger Video Shows Terrifying Aborted Landing On Boeing 737
A Boeing 737-200 had to abort a landing after heavily damaging its right wing. The impact was so harsh that it ripped off part of the wing and damaged a flap. The plane recovered at the last second, when it seemed that a fatal impact was imminent. Skip to minute 2:11 to see the moment of the landing. You will see the plane tilting heavily to the right, moving to the left of the runway as if it were being pushed by extreme crosswind. You can then see the bump when the wing hits the runway.

When I land I normally try to be lined up with the runway.
So do I C172. It's easier that way, I has less pucker factor and it helps your career in the long run. This was a very elementary mistake made by student pilots. Perhaps the pilot was getting a lap dance at the time!

Yeah -I would say it was pretty ugly - the right engine was well left of the centerline, in fact it was almost left of the left "piano bar" How much more of a bank would it have taken to cartwheel the airplane, another 03 degrees?
That has to be the worst approach I have ever seen. Cripes, I am just a Private pilot and I am sure I could do way better than that. Maybe I will send them my resume..LOL
Perhaps, after that little incident, there's a newly open position for you at the airline ;) Wishing you well in your interview
I learned early on a simple rule: A Good Approach = A Good Landing
