Great video!  Lots of ultra-smooth landings.

It was interesting to see in one of the last landings on the video, that the 777 deployed Reverse Thrust immediately after touchdown.  I was under the impression that all wheels had to be down before Reverse Thrust.  What might be considered normal procedure?

That one comes to Toronto a lot. Sits for a few days then if you are lucky you get to watch it depart. Always great to see 727's!

Great video...One of the most amazing aeroplanes I ever saw was at the 2005 Avalon airshow in Melbourne - A Royal New Zealand Air Force B727 took off on Rwy 18 and I didn't really pay much attention as I thought it was just another commercial type airliner, albiet a very pretty one. When the commentator announced the return of the 727 from the south I looked up to see this beautiful airliner flying clean at about 280knots only 100 feet off the runway, it then zoom climbed to almost vertical before performing a knife edge turn to the left with low pressure vapor peeling off the wings like a fighter jet! An amazing image I'll never forget and the 727 intantly got added to the 'favorites' list!!!
