So it is a good landing then, kudos to pilot.Well my dad just confirmed,it can mostly be salvaged as not much damaged was done except the gears.Still it will be out of service for a year or so.
The Sukhoi was flown by Wing Commander Sidhart Vishwas Munje who crashed his first Su-30 five year ago.So it is a good landing then, kudos to pilot.
