FSX Princess Juliana landing Boeing 747 - very low over beach!

This is me on final approach and landing a Boeing 747 at Princess Juliana International Airport.

Now I know I did this all wrong but it was on purpose. I wanted to land as close over the beach as possible like the dodgy KLM 747 pilots (check my favourites). I reckon I managed to stop in an impressively short distance considering.

I set autobrakes to 2, armed the autospoilers and deployed reverse thrust manually after nosegear touchdown. Weather conditions were ideal.

way did you flare the entire aproach?

[fspilot73]

@AlexisTheKingNL the aircraft's configuration was slightly nose up on final with flaps and gear down, hardly a flare. Anyway I was trying to set up the bad landing on purpose so the approach is unimportant.
