Well, It not really easy to land an A-1, such massive aircraft.
Is there any video or post to teach us about it?

Mark the end of the runway, (makes it easier to line up).
Approach the runway from either the NW or SE and head towards the runway. You will have to go outside of the map, but that's ok as planes can go out indefinitely without punishment.
Use the maker on your compass to line up with the runway, you can also follow the mountains as they will lead you to the airfield.
As you're doing this slow down the plane by putting it on a low throttle (or tap W if you're using a keyboard). Once you're about 100m from the runway put on reverse throttle (S on the keyboard), and then touch down.

If the text in the video is too hard to read use this:
1. Mark the end of the runway on your map.
2. Fly outside of the map. You can either come in from the North West or South East.
3. Ignore the warning, you can stay outside forever without punishment.
4. Slow down your plane and follow the line of mountains.
5. Slow down by reducing your joystick throttle or by tapping W on the keyboard.
6. Use your compass to guide the plane to the runway.
7. When you see the runway, slow down the plane completely.
8. After slowing down on the runway, pull up to brake.
To rearm and repair, taxi the plane to its spawn point.
