Yep, big bucks anyway you look at it, but when you can walk away from it, small matter.
Scariest I had was in a float plane and we barely clipped the top of a cypress tree taking off out of a canal (Pilot misjudged canal length, weight or hot humid conditions for take off).
Saw the green marks on the wing strut on my side, prop and pontoons didn't hit anything, thank goodness.
You never forget those little things :^)

Any landing that you can walk away from is a good landing. If you can reuse the airplane it is a great landing.
