Enjoy a very nice, gear-up landing

Old clip of a King Air 100 having a bad day. I'm curious why he landed
without flaps,


I thought the same thing, figgered maybe he was having all kinds of
associated failures or landing upwind? Have to go back and look.


As best I could tell, speaking of head's up piloting, he shut down the
engines in the flare, the props were stopped before they impacted the
runway.

That guy did better holding the center line than I do, with wheels
down!
