"Tywais" - If that is for real I think it is more impressive than the ad. More people involved and how did the pilot keep the exact height without being able to see the car?

With the first one although it is an ad. it sure looks like the stunt was for real which in its self is pretty impressive. It could all have ended in a spectacular disaster.

:D

I believe either the guy in the pickup bed or someone on the ground was in radio contact with the pilot. You know, one foot - one foot - ok. :D

If it were in Thailand, it would be someone -- probably in the truck? -- blowing a whistle. :whistling:

It can't be real. The load on the nose wheel of a B727 would be in excess of 10 tons. That's a 1 ton pickup, so the wheels would be splayed and the tray flat on the runway. The landing speed would have been about 130 knots or 150 mph, and the pickup was keeping up with it before touchdown, so I don't believe it's real
