Very nice video. I hate when people clap right when touching down though. It's not over until you're on the taxiway. You can land and still go around...
Could not land at all last year, we flew to Tenerife refuelled, took off again back to Madeira, could not land again, ended up landing on the island near Madeira and getting a boat. Was on the plane over 8 hours!
boatsplanestrains They usually try to use just half of the runway when they land from Santa Cruz but if they went a little bit further they wouldn't need to make a hard landing. I really don't know why. It is a tricky airport though.

That's fantastic. Was that by any chance the brakes of the plane doing that noise after landing?
Yep quite heavy braking towards the end there. Presume if they went further they would have to turn and backtrack at the end of the runway?

I felt that in MY stomach
I have YET to see a vid of this airport where the wind doesn't blow aircraft all over.
Hi, I am writing from a TV production company. I was wondering who I would need to speak to about permission to use this video in a documentary?
cannot stand people clapping, I mean, it's not as if you clap a taxi driver is it? for doing their job!!
