Often when forced to make an EOL to unsuitable terrain or small landing area - big flare to wash off the speed, spank in the tail which rebounds into the disc coming aft with the cyclic
Crab, could you kindly rephrase that sentence?

I don’t know the word “spank” and its meaning. I am not sure if here it is a verb (“to spank”) or a noun…
