Scary nosewheel landing Portugal

What the hell was he doing? He was carrying too much speed for satisfactory landing, and failing to flare. Whoever qualified that pilot, needs to be re-assessed as an instructor.

Nosewheel first is a no no. Assuming there was a strong headwind, less flap would have reduced the Nose down attitude also.. Much too much speed. Nev

Agree with above comments however no one mentioned what must have been a very high wind situation, possibly a short runway and a significant up slope. None of which excuses  the nose wheel first touch down.😈

Looks like a game video.

Maybe right there otherwise he must have had a massive headwind because the ground speed looks slow and the plane just didn't want to go down to the ground.

It's real and there's no upslope as you can see whitecaps on the water nearby. Perhaps it was a downhill approach and it went way past the designated touch down markers and should have gone initiated a Go-around' by then.  Nev
