I didn't even see the tail hook on that baby! 😅

[@mothmagic1]

A Twotter doing exactly what it was designed to do.

[@Alejandro-ho1fh]

I remember skydiving in zephyrhills fl my home long ago and I was shaking scared like yes it still has to land an it pulled this bs I was in shock trembling 😂

[@PLANEMANIA747]

That's impressive 👏 Nice capturing 😍

[@ianstewartaviation2634]

Wow that was a very short landing impressive 😳

[@DOMINICAAVIATION]

Amazing catch!!

[@bonzobonanza]

0:44 Guy in the red cap was flabbergasted 😂

[@flyinkiwi01]

Waiting until all wheels were on the runway before going into reverse would have been a bit kinder on the nose wheel.

[@TRPGpilot]

This is much kinder than the grass strips this aircraft is designed to operate . . .

[@martinblaine3575]

Demonstrating capabilities?

[@tdashgreet1809]

Insane flaring. That could've been a disaster if the plane went below the rotate speed!

[@TRPGpilot]

Why would he be landing at or even attempting to flare at anything even appoaching Vr speed?

[@mothmagic1]

A fine example of how to use aerodynamic braking.

[@Stl10699]

Stop pretending you know what your talking about.

[@tdashgreet1809]

​@@Stl10699To be clear, I am a twin otter enthusiast so I do know what I'm talking about.

[@icykenny92]

I think you are meaning stall speed.

[@cuongtruong6043]

Was that landing intentional? I've never seen anything like it

[@VicBulldogs]

why wouldn't it have been intentional? The DHC-6 has amazingly short landing distance.

[@martinblaine3575]

Demonstrating capabilities?

[@pepitaflyparamotor7796]

great pilot

[@johnperry259]

What’s insane about it ?

[@catmando4914]

strong crosswind. Well handled.

[@JeffsonSolomon]
