Default Re: Walked away from this one...

Glad you're safe and learned a bit from that experience.. that what it's all about !!


I had a similar experience with the same result coming back from a XC .. porposing ( spelling ?? ) a few times before finally settling back on the runway.. definately one of my ugliest landings by far !! i should have just gone around but I never had it happened to me before and really felt out of control of the situation for a second or two before coaxing her down finally..

Afterwards I had wondered if I just added a bit of power as if I had ballooned a little and just held constant back pressure a little bit to see if that would soften it up a bit and smooth things out..
