Here's the link; it was very entertaining, informative reading this week:

Good story Genuine Risk.
I never gave a clap on landing, but I had a friend that got something like it after landing on a runway that gave him a moment of joy. Thank goodness for penecilln (sp).
Clap isn't anything to applaud for!
My friend remembers...
Happy landings!
