Ah, well it does appear the hook made contact . . . I'd love to know the back story on that umm aborted landing.

The Youtube caption says the pilot stalled the jet on approach and had to put the spurs to it to keep from cracking up.

But I'm no pilot so I couldn't say if that explanation fits the evidence.

I keep on watching, but that guy never gets closer to landing. He's going to run out of fuel soon.....

My MIL says she's not coming back for four years until when my youngest graduates. I had to bite my tongue to keep from asking her that after that she'd never come back.

I can kind of read that both ways.... What are you going to put into practice?
