 :o OMG!......Blimey, what a thumper!  :o

When I was a student pilot, my instructor used to joke that any landing you could 'walk away from' was a good one; so that HS 146 landing-hard at Docklands (only-just) fits into that description I think!  ;D

Any any landing where they can use the plane again was a great landing  ;D

A real testament to the strength of the landing gear!!

Looked at a few other "crazy landings" on there and it makes you wonder how on earth they get away without crashing badly!!

Talking of which.........how would you like to fly into this airport?
