What tells us at what time this aircraft finally accepted it was on the ground and released all its airborne lockouts.?
It appears to have reacted for a considerable period of time as though weight was "not" on the main gear and the landing gear bogie's had not passed their tilt on touch down signals....is this a case of a ("the aircraft still thought it was airborne") lack of communication signals due a soft touch contaminated landing aircraft?
As I posted in #118, it appears there are two possible causes to the aircraft responding the way it did: Throttles not in the idle position or a failure of the Air/Ground sensing system.

this conversation is too hot for me so I'll go back to lurking and enjoying...
Think I'll stick with the thread topic myself...
