Slip slidin' away - aviation edition


A Gulfstream G200 executive jet had an "interesting" landing in Moscow a couple of days ago.  I'm sure the snow (and, probably, ice on the runway) had a lot to do with it.  I suggest you watch the video with the sound turned off - some idiot loaded a music soundtrack over the surveillance footage.





I imagine the occupants had a wild ride!  You can read more about the incident here.

Rule 1: any landing you can walk away from is a good landing. (someone had to go there first)

Rule 1a: if the aircraft is reusable it was a fantastic landing.

I'm guessing it was a fantastic landing.
