i guess codguy can corredt me, but i think what happend is when she (the co-pilot who flew) turn the nose towards the runway, the right wing moves faster then the left wing, so it got more lift...

Nice recovery though. After the aborted landing, I would have asked for a Guinness, and a clean pair of shorts.

Ben's landings are that good?
