    oh yeah, I forgot to take that into account.

        Sorry for taking so long, I've only been able to upload this video now. This is the video of the aforementioned landing.

                            But as it looks like my guess was correct. They must have landed halfway through the runway to have such numbers. Also, it wasn't flared at all. My next flight was a SriLankan and the flare was pretty visible and the landing was butter smooth.
                            Thanks for sharing the photos and video with us! How was the passenger load and the service on UL's CMB-DEL-CMB flights?

                                Air India A359 VT-JRB grounded at LHR since 27-April-2025. I am wondering why?

                                        flight MU232 that departed last night also followed a rather unusual filght path, departing from rwy 22(as opposed to rwy 04). I know of this because I heard some aircraft noise that was louder(than I've used to before) over our house. is this also due to the conditions last night?
                                        flight path if anyone's interested;
                                        ​edit: this was at about 20:30(+5.30)

                                            maybe for aircraft maintenance/inspection? or clogged loo's(if you know what i'm saying) because I didn't find any information on any incidents around it.

                                                            spotted a FI B752 departing from CMB yesterday afternoon/morning. any reason why>?

                                                            apparently it's also an all-business class aircraft.
