Crop dusters know that if one undershoots an engine failed forced landing to the point that a fence or similar obstruction will not be cleared then if the aircraft is positively forced onto the ground and made to bounce this action may possibly save the day. Extreme measures for sure but something happens to give more lift. 828a.
