Ah, so it approached the ground at an angle. That explains it.  |
Yeah, reminds me of what a passenger (older lady) once said to me... HER: "Those planes sure do come in low when they land." ME (in total serious mode): "Yes ma'am, that's where they keep the runway."
After a second or two, her husband got the joke, then asked... HIM: "Well, couldn't they just come in higher and then come in steeper at the end?" ME (again totally serious): "Sure.... once."
