Lockheed P2V Neptune "Landings", HD

Landings in a Lockheed P2V always have an element of surprise! This is an airplane that usually takes off with 4 engines and lands on 2 engines. They are equipped with shortly coupled landing gear, fading drum brakes (no anti-skid), a lack of elevator control and a rudder pedal that requires up to 200 lbs of force. Here is some video from a night visual approach Runway 28R at Billings (Which is on a mesa with a cliff at both ends), MT, San Bernardino, CA and Fort Huachuca, AZ, (with a landing during a thunderstorm: 90 degree 30 knot left crosswind at the end).
