Landings

/ˈlændɪŋz/ noun

Definition

The act of coming down and settling on a surface, especially aircraft or spacecraft. Flat areas at the top of stairs or between flights.

Etymology

From Old English landian 'to bring to land', from land. The aviation meaning developed in the early 20th century, while the architectural sense of stair platforms existed earlier.

Kelly Says

Every aircraft landing is a controlled crash - pilots must perfectly balance speed, altitude, and angle to transition from the three-dimensional freedom of flight to the unforgiving reality of solid ground, making it one of aviation's most critical moments.
