mike,
im not sure on this but you mean what do you mean by "in MAS fo's under training do not do landings"?? or am i reading it wrong? it should be part of the training.
by the way the so called 3.5G landing we're talking about was also a trg flight and the capt couldnt react in time as well. like u said,things like this happen on trg flights.
Rear world,
sorry buddy but there was no recorded "hard landing" at such a sector. and by the way,if you're a pilot,you should know better....
1.how can you base a good/bad landing by pax reaction??? all they wanna feel is smooth soft landings but we all know that aint always possible. the minute there's a slightly harder "thud" than usual,some passengers
thats it.
2. HAVE YOU BEEN TO KBR?? if u wanna try landing on egg shells at that airport do gimme a call cos we're in for hell of a show. you float or misjudge yr flare for one second and yr nuts fly up yr throat.
