I tend to agree with @guka about @KulaRaha opinion above. Also with @mkenyan below, which might mean the owner of the runway was so anxious waiting for the plane, and just went berserk on touch-down.

If that is true, I advice @commando to take care of this runway. But I don't advice use of hired ones.
Please contract it completely before use.

Shocking how low the level of knowledge concerning runways and flooding is...seems only Njunge, mpobiz & I are true pilots!

How does this just suddenly happen? I know runways should be so minimally 'flooded' for the landing experience to be serious fun. I am wondering what would suddenly cause a runway that was very good to suddenly feel too flooded, making landing not a very nice experience.
Objectively and without disrespect to our beloved fish, and to the benefit of all who have experienced this, what would be the reasons behind this? - diet, overuse, too much excitement ....

#kularaha...exactly...all he needs to do is have a bucket to scoop the water when it becomes too much and continue landing. The noise the plane makes when in contact with the runway is a stimulant...an aphrodisiac of some sort...@commando...keep going...you are touching all the right knobs...
