Looks like Merpati need to go back to the drawing board. Must of been a real thumper.

Wow, you are right, that's gotta be one heavy landing!! Thanks for sharing

Ouch! I guess it's a MA-60? Thought it was a Dash 8 at first glance but no T Tail

I do like the title "New Indonesian Rotor / tilt wing"

, Just to prove it dose not happen to regular airline pilots , recall a display at a Farnbourgh airshow and a test/display pilot dose the near very same thing with a DH Buffalo .

Look at it this way ... least they did'nt have to roll the stairs out for it

Are yes this one. A display pilots worst nightmare.

Yeah that's the one , got gradual still photo and a break off what went wrong here , guess the MA-60 was'nt handled this way .. maybe just one of those very heavy Welly landings

Right in the touch down zone though, nicely handled crosswind...

On both counts .. if only the undercarriage could talk

... Ooooo this is going to hurt

CP your byline was never more apt - you could link it to that clip...
I gave him 50-50 as he made the final turn.

I would've been cranking out those flaps myself, in the last 15 seconds or so.
Easy to say after the fact I know, but I've done it in the sim plenty of times, and gotten away with it!
