Anyone know why the nose gear was down a few minutes before the rest of the gear?

From the comments, someone said that the plane is designed to be able to put down the gear separately. In normal situations, the gear would all come down at the same time. They just put the nose down to get the video..

Awesome video. And perfect landing, the kind that you barely feel inside the cabin. It's a lot better w/o the porno soundtrack, however. I killed the sound.

The video says A380. People in the comment section are arguing over what kind of plane it is.

It's a 747-200. The reference to the Airbus was so you'd see the one in the background that was visible for a little bit while they were taxiing.

The comment section of the first video is actually the most intelligent discussion I've ever seen on youtube. If you click "view all comments", you can see them all on one page. Lots of pilots and experts.
