Yesterday -- b-757 low flying and two coast guard helicopters - and abourd the jet --- the Icelandic nationa Hanball team - silver medal winners at the olympics 2008
The reykjavik airport runway is not completely horizontal. I must say this video is pretty impressive, but the pilot had alot of height to work with when you think he's touching the ground. Cause you can't see the end of the runway from the viewers standpoint.
this is runway 19 btw, it has ILS CAT I/NBD-DME and is approx 1567 x 45 meters
this was to honer the icelandic national team in handball after the silvedr in the olympics 2008... you see the helicopters that flew with the plane, and this is not the first time icelandic pilots take a 757 and barely touch the ground with the body of the plane with the wheels up..
It was. He wasn't planning on landing. In 0:36 a guy says "Hann er ekki að lenda. Hann er að fara upp aftur" which translates to "He's not landing. He's going up again."

Next time you share the champagne with the pilot, remind him to put the wheels down!
Difficult to believe this might have been done on purpose.
