Ouch. Once you've sat through the gratutitous squawking-guitar-backed
car advert !

Looks like he touched down the first time as well. I wonder what the
METARs were showing that afternoon? I remember an aborted landing
coming into Chambery airport about 3 years ago with winds gusting to
about 40-45mph.

Video played just fine on Apple Mac with OS 10.3.8 and Safari browser.

Looked a bit like routine winter landing at Sumburgh airport!
