I’ve played enough Flight Control on my iPad to know that landing a bunch of planes is no easy task. To show everyone the complication they produced this crazy looking time-lapse video of planes landing and taking off around the world.
A while back a friend of mine sent me this video of an airliner landing over Maho Beach in St Maarten. With the Princess Juliana International Airport being situated directly next to the beach, people often gather there to watch the massive jets fly so close overhead on their final approach. It’s all fun and games watching a 747 land 50 feet overhead until it passes you far enough to wreak havoc on the beach and sand you’re sitting on. Thomas Prior‘s photo series of the immediate aftermath is brilliant. See some selections after the jump.

Some of the world’s biggest companies get along with some of the worst designs and its unbelievable.

More after the jump.
