What it makes this video interesting is the “wheelbarrow” done by the Australian pilot at 0:43.
As it can be seen in the footage, a skilled pilot is required to perform such a spectacular maneuver: in fact, the Caribou driver maintains a very low rate of descent in order to avoid a nose landing gear breakage caused by a harsh touchdown on the runway.
