Background - in case you aren't aware - is that artists are threatening to remove their work from Spotify if Spotify don't remove Joe Rogan, because he's a misinformation spouting gobshite (I'm paraphrasing). Blunt has the real threat though.

How the duck is that newsworthy?

WTF?!

I feel sick just watching that spin

I had one of those in Dublin Airport on a Ryanair flight - it was fucking horrible. The worst part was when the pilot tried again. I mean what makes you think you'll get it this time ??

I never worried about flying before but since that day there's always a low level of anxiety there.

Not pretty and would have caused a bit of damage, but not fundamentally dangerous.

The joys of landing in gusty conditions - add in the ground-effect (which multiplies the lift from the wings as you get close to the runway) and it’s pretty tricky to put it down smoothly. Passengers don’t really love it when the pilots more “assertively” put them down.

Looks like he’s already aborted the landing and has reapplied the power when he loses lift and the tail scrapes.

I suspect @IanF could explain this rather better though…..

Looked this up after seeing a tweet from Jethro Bovingdon. What an amazingly silly thing, managing the turbo lag off the line looks tricky

Has been about for a little while, and - surprisingly - isn’t reall.
