The rule is: you "bounce", you "go around". (Trick is in the go-around, pitch attitude <10deg NU until 35-50ft RA, otherwise you will get a tail strike).

does the type have autospoiler/ spoiler retraction? just curious,...

is a bounced LDG different from a baulk/GA in the type?

and how 'easy' would a novice MD-11 pilot induce POI's during a bounce?

I do know that many things must be left unsaid,...but those questions are quite inocuous,....














I'm surprised boeing didn't steal 'PCA' yet
