Hi all,

I'm confused again, we are talking about a 'hard' landing here are we not, otherwise the best suggestion I have to fix a 'heavy' landing is to go out yonder and dump some fuel!

Cheers

PS - the best fix for landing a -200 series B727 was to push slightly just prior to touch, a little thrust always helped if the descent rate was a bit large!
As I understand it, the -200 B727 was one of the most difficult to consistently land with only the required amount of 'bump' at touchdown.
