Do you take the I-95 to Tangiers Island?

Oh my gosh.. I wish I were going there right this minute !!! I will watch this over and over just to feel like I am going back :)

I have been there 5 times and hope to go back in Oct. Too bad some of the comments have to be so nasty.....

and, by the way.. the airport has a NEW RUNWAY ... it is awesome. The people of Tangier are really proud of their all new roads, and airport. Try to go there agian sometime !!!!

This island has gained a lot of attention from Linguists because its people speak a unique English restoration era dialect of American English hypothesized to be nearly unchanged since the days of its first occupation by English colonists in the late 1600s. Very cool!

@BennyB5555,,you the early 1600's right?

Your wife is funny. I also talk out loud during my not so graceful landings.

[mikeb172sp]

Why didn't you transition to the wing low method prior to touchdown?

Be careful our there.

To your credit, that was a nice approach!

[cessna7035q]

My failure to make an effective wing low transition was definitely the prime mistake. I've learned from watching this video over and over. My wife is definitely a good commentator!

You see what I get for commenting on your landing... My landing at Block Island RI was also pretty ugly! Next time I will keep my mouth shut. The Aviation gods don't know it all pilots.

what a crappy looking runway

[bill8912328]

Only people from Tangier, such as myself, reserve the right to say it looks crappy. We don't take kindly to people, especially some one from Israel, talking shit about our pretty little island. What if I said Israel should be bombed off the map, Would you like that?

[godzilaxs]

come one man... Why a answer like that?

[Twitchy07]

that was a hard landing...nice crab approach..
