I remember coming into LaGuardia in a storm and it was scary, seeing that water come at us. And I was only a passenger; not a pilot.
Not sure my last was sent....Whole different story. 160KIAS +fuel on final. 159 it started to feel mushy (suggestive number?) I later read that one reason the bird seemed to be underpowered was the engine and tailpipe were not aligned. (F-84F) Big difference in TO with token or no fuel in the drops. Lower the barrier, here I come, with full load.
