Hard landing and hard braking of this PAL Express turboprop on Busuanga's remote airport. Is it safe?

  • the same in tagbilaran, where pilots could not perform very smooth landings due to the short runway...

  • what is Busuanga's remote airport ??

  • Actually, nothing wrong with this landing. As any pilot will tell you, if you're landing on a short/remote strip, the best thing you can do is get positive ground contact as quickly as possible after passing the runway threshold. The landings that make me nervous on a short runway are the very long, drawn-out flares in an attempt to make an ultra-smooth touchdown. What passengers don't appreciate is that sometimes, in those circumstances, those ultra-smooth landings can kill you.

  • the landing was smooth i appreciate your landing

  • that's nice landing!

    And grate turn.
