Pretty intense video, not too bad of a landing with only one engine.

would like to see it from the outside of the craft, but easily looks serviable which is great

What are you talking about veg? did you not notice the cut milo up against the hud....it wnet off the end of the runway, they had no overrun cable, and if you notice you saw sky and ground rolling around.....I'd be the plane was in pieces with the cockpit section detached at the wing root....total loss.

At least the pilot got out....hope he didnt break anything on landing (again)

also did anyone notice his indicated airspeed at touchdown? and he only lost 100 knts on the rollout......that was a big time "hot landing"

He came in HOT. I guess the fire was still going or there's no way he would've attempted landing at 300+. He should've known it wouldn't stop, though.
