The only problem with the 777 is the flunky in the R.H.S. being afraid of the ground and flaring about 10 feet too early, with the resulting float and hard landing, generally exaccerbated by the continuing pitch inputs the longer the flare continues. My gentle elevator forward push usually puts it on the RWY within the prescribed touch down zone and the guy in the R.H.S. generally is not aware of it. Will they ever learn how to fly?
