Ok, then you already know that was not a formation landing. The second plane did not land for the correct runway, so he was not expecting anybody on its way.
There's some difference between a "if you try to land in formation you'll crash" and "he was not landing in formation and found another plane ahead (at less speed)".
Lined up takeoff may be a problem, I agree, but landing... you land at idle!
Anyway, we were debating about having aerobatic planes in CoD...
