By the way, thanks for the shout on this one. Nothing like watching a live moment - reminds me of watching the first moon landing.

Excellent pub event!

We should try to do more of these... 8)

Bugger. Methinks they've gone into 'de-brief' mode now.... replays of the landing...

Well.... great event... I think I need a top up, thanks Barman  ;)

Imagine if we?d had this technology in 1969 when we landed on the Moon? fuck me it would literally have been ?out of this world? and I can?t imagine what we would have posted. I remember staring unbelieving at the screen at the time?  noooo:

The nose-down glide implied they were a tad low on airspeed. I figured the u/c came down right on cue just as it made no difference.

Yes, why don't they just throw the emergency slides and get everybody out?

Wonder how much fuel they've got left...  confused:

2 Barrels of Barman's homebrew I suspect, beats high octane rocket fuel any day and NASA likes the savings. Although if they had been told what they actually use to run the engines on that thing I could see the launch site becomming a ghost town  before take off. scared:
