I do agree there are lots of fakes, but I do not think this is fake. He spins around approaching the truck, backs past the truck so he can see it. Tilts forward to stop his backward motion. Then lands a smooth landing.
I ran it both ways several times. I see no cuts or splices as if it has been edited. IF it is indeed being shown in reverse, when you run it the other way, why does the pilot take off from the truck, back up, fly out away from the truck, then turn around and fly backward away from the truck? Makes no sense. IF he flew toward the truck forward, then stopped before he got to the truck, then turned around and landed, the prop wash would have blown the man off the truck. As he did it, they he "put on the brakes" to stop is travel, the prop wash was past the truck.
That is how I see it. He is just a good pilot.
My dad thought me LONG AGO to ALWAYS hold onto the starter cord till it has fully retracted. Lawn mowers, chainsaws, outboard motors,anyting with a pull start, NEVER let the cord recoil unrestrained.
