I mean crashing technically counts as a landing. We can use the rocketry term lithobraking to make it sound better.

What is your “technical” definition of “landing”?

[–] mitchty@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

Any landing where you can walk away from the plane is a good landing.

Any landing where you can reuse the plane is a great landing.
