I wish I were in that seat. I would even be happy in the observer's seat. Heck, I'd even take the cabin seat and just watch the engine.

I hear the instructor at the end of the rollout say at 1:05 "Outstanding" at 1:07 "Nice" and at 1:09 "That was nice." He seemed happy and I couldn't agree more.

I couldn't tell he had stopped, that was a smooth landing. About 30 years ago I flew over the caribbean in a dc3 owned by my cousin as co pilot (I was just a private pilot and it was my first trip with him) and I had the most fun week of my life. It is a plane with its own personality and presence.

Nice landing. I've been in planes where the pilot nearly jolted my teeth into the roof of my mouth. I'd be a satisfied customer if I was a passenger in the cabin of your plane!

imagine what the people driving in that intersection would think if they knew that a 19 y/o was flying a dc3 right over their heads...

Wow! That was an amazing landing! Well done you should be very proud of yourself, that was almost professional! :)
