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

    oh yeah, I forgot to take that into account.

    Yeah, it was a really hard landing. It was like being slapped really hard on the floor. Crazy! But I don't think these numbers are accurate because these are a bit extreme, as it looks like, isn't it?

    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.

    It looks like within a span of 7s, the aircraft dropped 925ft and 37kts., which indicates rates of -7,928.57fpm(!) and 5.28kt/s2 or -9.79km/s2
    not sure because FR24 isn't very accurate closer to the ground.
    you're free to correct if I'm wrong

    I took this flight from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, to Delhi yesterday. The landing was super scary. I'm wondering if they landed halfway through the runway because they were really hard on the brakes until the runway end marking was reached. The following was the flight.

    Would someone be able to get the KML file for this one for me? So I can see what happened. Thanks in advance.​

    A C-17 isnt something you see often here in SL. how short of a time did it take to take off again from CMB?(C-17s have great STOL performance despite it being larger)
