Note
A regular plural, but one meaning lives mostly in it: in fishing, landings is the amount of fish caught in a particular area or on a particular trip, and it rarely turns up in the singular. The other plurals are ordinary counts: touchdowns at an airport, platforms between flights of stairs, places where boats come in. The noun shares its spelling with the gerund of the verb land.
