landed a bit short and almost fell in the water at the other end.
It ain't easy getting a 747 in this place...

You can download the video here

Enjoy...

NICE video man... nice landing too a bit early yes... :o

But why did you pull the revers so late and also you didn't use any spoilers on rolling down the runway.. I bet if you did you would have stopped with a lot of runway left and also you must release reverse when you reach 60knots :P

Great video... what program did you use?

yeah, i totally messed up on that landing.
it has been ages since i last tried flying a 747 and forgot the basics :o
I'll give it another try tonite

I used fraps to save the video and then re-encoded with WMP to size the file down.  The fraps video size was almost 1 gig, WMP got it down to around 25 megs.
