Pilot just barely stops before running off the cliff at the end of the runway.

You can hear the plane didn't want to stay on the ground and bounced a few times before settling down.

Let's put a lady and a black pilot in the cockpit, what could go wrong?

my last flight in a 727 was with two crack pilots, the FO and FE, we had a little incident in the air and my first thought was "I'm about to die with two women and we're not even sexing"

I'm no expert, but those propellers in the cock pit don't seem to be useful.

high lift devices

ETA: jk, really they are repeaters, they let the pilots know that the props on the engines are spinning

Dammit, I was going for pure jest, but this response seems reasonable, so I'm not sure if you're playing along or if this is true.

same airport


Pilots have to skim a hill to reach the runway. Skip to 11:50 for great view of a twin otter coming in low.

They're in a plane. They could have just gone off the edge and kept flying.

I'm guessing a faulty hyperdrive. 5 minutes with a hydrospanner should do the trick

You are the pilot so I will ask you. Couldn't they have just hit the air brakes?

Women are stereotypically shitty drivers, and correctly so, but blacks? Really?

No, that's St. Bart although it's also a pretty spectacular landing approach in its own right. The OP is Saba, different island.

Can I safely assume with all of the downvotes, that I don't need to bother with watching the video?
