What is it about landings? An R/C pilot could fly an aerobatic flight requiring much skill but, at the very end, bugger up the landing a little. Guess what everybody would remember? Yep, the bad landing. I can't tell you how many times I've seen this happen. Likewise, a full scale pilot could work his butt off trying to give his passengers the smoothest flight possible during a three hour flight in poor weather. Passengers will ignore the pilot's work during the flight and complain about a "firm" landing.

This amounts to nothing more than armchair piloting and Monday morning quarterbacking. Don't become one of these people. [:@]

P.S. Biged, this rant is NOT about you. It's just from general observations as an R/C and full scale pilot. You're allowed to give me crap any time.
