A Boeing KC-46 makes a rather 'sporty' approach and landing ahead of this week's Paris Air Show.



A bit of background here: LINK

Right, just landing. Evidently not the way the peanut gallery would have done it, but there doesn't seem to be any bodies or flames so he's cool.

Several years ago, I had the "opportunity" to watch and ride in many C123's and C130"s.
This landing would be on the very gentle end of the landing continuum.
I think it is a matter of how often the crew does it. Twenty or more times a day for months on end tends to sharpen skills.
Carruthers' link mentions tut-tutting in the crowd. They should have gone to a car show.

When someone says something really smart or funny they sometimes drop the microphone and walk off the stage for effect.
