That's very bad. I'm struggling to spot the problem. I wonder if there was an asymmetric brake application. Amazing that they got away with it!

I suspect a considerable crosswind with the undercarriage steered off toward the cameraman to compensate, but whoever was on the undercarriage steering tiller was a bit slow dialling it straight after touchdown so the plane had a bit of a tankslapper.

Reminds me of this photo I took at Brize in 2018. Same day I saw Myria for the one and only time.
