Very Unusual but Awesome Landing in Frankfurt - Cockpit View!



737-300 landing on 25C. There aren't many places with 3 parallel runways, so I had a look at a map here:

- there's a new runway to the NW, which is 25R.

And here's the Youtube description:

"While approaching Frankfurt's 25L, our captain had the idea to perform a swing to 25C, because the parking position was at the end of the airport, and so we could roll all the way down the runway and save a lot of time.
The tower gave the permission to do so, and we landed without reversers and speedbrakes. I sat on the jumpseat and captured it all for you guys ;-)
I hope you enjoy this video nearly as much as I enjoyed the landing."
