A short video of a nice Cessna 170 that will need a little metal work.  I looked at control positions and I would say that pilot was just along for the ride...  Wind appeared to be quite reasonable and down the runway.

That was a bit special, absolutely no control inputs. But at least he followed his after landing checklist and raised the flaps!

[b]PIN IT !!!!!!!!!! -- [/b]the fails of 3 point landings and conventional gear. Relax when flying and work hardest once the wheels touch the ground. See some still need a tricycle but that was one luck sumbitch.
