    Fuck yeah that is how that is done. The captain is Brenda Riepsaame Wassink, she had about 15 years flying when this was taken on both the 67 and 57. Fuck is made that look like a normal day, she can be my pilot any day.

    Oh and every time you hear talk about maybe we only need one pilot up front any more. This is why it isn’t true. That was 100% hand flown. Her copilot was responsible for all the radios, and watching the instruments while she just kept her eyes on the ball and the center line. And she greased that, even good pilots will bounce those landings.
