Fotos para la historia.-


A Royal Air Force Harrier pilot comes in for landing at Kandahar AB (OAKN) and crashes. May ´09.

Looks like pilot is doing conventional landing with nozzles pointed almost full aft. Comes in too fast with too much rate of descent, raises nose and pulls power to bleed airspeed, then you hear engine throttle up probably trying to wave it off. Hits the ground with way too much rate of descent and plane comes apart. Conventional landings rare in Harrier due to high speed at touchdown. Plane prob had emergency of some kind.
