Nice landing. I flew many hours in the Seminole, Duchess, Apache, Aztruck while building ME time. Then 42 hours in the Metroliner sim at TWA/Flight Safety course. ..... I got .5 actual on my ATP Check ride in Long Beach area in a Seminole.
fgtrplt03--- flat approach because he's flying the glideslope on the ILS. long float and holding some power because of the relatively strong cross wind.
Yea, thats a good point. There were a small handful of houses there when I was there, but I thought the climbouts went over that drainage pond there at Peach and Sheilds
Yeah, they don' t really have time to resurface even the touchdown markers because one, 29R is the main departure and approach runway, and 29L is too short to handle the daily UPS 752 and FDX 722 that land there.
hahaha I saw my friend's house :D
Anyways I got to meet one of the F-16 pilots and he showed my around the ANG Base, then we watched 6 F-16s take off, it was awesome

The other day I was holding short of 29L in a c172,, and two F16s took off from 29R.. Thats the closest I have ever been to my favorite fighter

I had them split me by 500 feet above and below while transitioning across midfield. Such an amazing sight. I love how they are based out of FAT.

I used to live in Fresno, and they haven't resurfaced 29R Yet? Poor ANG Pilots lol

Actually, feel sorry for the people living under the departure end of 29R when the ANG guys do their max performance climbouts.

Flat approach and long float in the flare (touchdown 2k ft. down runway). Good video though.

Nice vid. I can see the wind effect, yet a perfect landing.
