F/A-18E landing at KORS

Man, you dropped it real quick to touchdown.

That is the nice thing about carrier aircraft.  ;D One is supposed to just drive them into the wires and not flare. I hit at about 950 fpm sink rate which is well above average for a carrier landing, but nowhere near fast enough to damage that aircraft IRL. I was unjustifiably concerned about the landing roll as that was my first time landing a Super Hornet at KORS.
