Does this look like a stable approach and landing?
Inquiring minds want to know. Not being a pilot, I can't answer. But to my untrained eye it really looks like an unstable approach. (www.youtube.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Looks like they hire pilots that can actually fly the plane, when just pushing a button won’t due. Good for them.
When I watched that yesterday, I found my self humming the song "You can always go around", that said I have no idea what the company or EASA would think of that landing.
This could get expensive...cleaning up the cabin, dry cleaning and fresh underwear for the passengers.
Looks like pilot-induced oscillations to me!
It is not so dramatic if watched as normal speed. This video is showing the approach faster than actual.
Well, they landed OK, and with the weather being what it was they did a good job.
It seems like everybody was experiencing the same weather, nobody crashed.
A good job of flying in difficult circumstances.

Successful completion of an ill-advised procedure isn't an indication of good work. It's an indication of good luck. Take a look at the statistics from IATA: "During the data period 2011-2015 considered within the following chapters approximately 65% of all recorded accidents occurred in the approach and landing phases of flight, and unstabilized approaches were identified as a factor in 14% of those approach and landing accidents."
