normal landing

JAL officials said the pilot of the A350 has reported not seeing the Bombardier after he received authorization to make a normal landing.

The man who shot the smartphone footage of the plane’s descent said it looked like a normal landing until the plane suddenly veered to the left.

A witness who recorded footage of the plane’s descent said it looked like a normal landing until the plane suddenly veered to the left.

“The pilot attempted to make a normal landing when the landing gear failed and collapsed without warning,” the fire department said in a post on Facebook.

Homendy also said it was too soon to say whether the pilot had control of the helicopter during the steep, high-speed descent, although she noted that “it wouldn’t be a normal landing speed.”
