Excellent video Mark, it certainly gives one a good perspective to the "low" approach that KRs need to take to get these slick planes on the ground.

I posted one to youtube last night, at https://youtu.be/y2PTrOBGAVU , if you want to take a look. This is my home airport, only 40' wide and 2600' long, and the taxiway to the hangar is only 12'. Note that I was on the brakes and the rollout at the end was still pretty short. Visibility for the camera is considerably better than for me, as it is mounted higher than my eyeballs. This looks like a fast landing, but it's just the wide angle view that does that. Actual touchdown was in the upper fifties. Obviously these are wheel landings, as the canopy and cowling arrangement leaves no hope of seeing where you're going otherwise, and the runway is too narrow to use peripheral vision.
