I'd call that a very good landing. Looks like he's gonna walk away from , and most likely will be able to reuse the aircraft.

Any landing one survives for more than 24 hours after is a good one. If one can reuse the aircraft, that's a great landing.

Tried this in a simulator at Oceana NAS many years ago. I would not have walked away from either attempted landing and the plane would not have been useable after my attempts. Gave me a whole new level of appreciation for what these pilots do.

That doesn't look so hard.

Of course, at night in bad weather, that would be a whole different story.

I had a college friend who retired as a Rear Admiral. He had over 1100 carrier landings to his credit. What skill!

It’s a amazing a cockpit that small can accommodate a pilot and the cajones it takes to do that.
