That looks like a really fast approach. Does anyone know what speed it landed at?
Google it on line it will tell about it.

So much for hold'n it off, lol
That was very noticeable. Maybe it can't be done. touching down on those skids has to be like landing with the brakes on and they're way aft of the center of lift. Kind of like the short bodied MU-2s.
I want an X-15...
