Great video, but that tune was only interesting in the first 100,000 or so other aviation videos I've seen...

I land like that in FB/1946 with an La7, but I didn't think it was possible in real life, nor believe that anyone would be daring enough to do it. It's a big plane too.

It's a typical BlitzPig landing.

We have done it that way for years in IL2, and now in CloD.

It's called a combat landing.

Come in hot and sometimes under fire, usually out of ammo too, dragging your foe behind you. He thinks he is going to get an easy kill.

MUHAHAHAHA!!!!

Either the flak pops him or it's a great set up for a drag and bag as the bad guy dumps a bunch of speed to try to get a hit on his "easy" target and suddenly finds himself being the trophy in the cross hairs.

Here is a collection of clips featuring De Havilland Mosquito KA114, recently restored by the folks at Avspecs (Warbird Restorations).

Had to post it, the mossie is one of my favorite aircraft...

This last one is shot in the cockpit. I recommend you watch it on Youtube in HD full screen and the engines are awesome!
