Thanks for that fun memory, Russ! I watched that movie over several junior-high lunch hours, years ago. They showed it in segments in the school auditorium -- it took most of a week. Never forgot it!

That guy was just too fast on final, IMHO! :lol:

That's not bouncing,landing behind a T-6 and in front of a Spitfire on the way to breakfast this morning, with lots of witness's, now that's bouncing. Stabilized approach and good speed control is the key!
