Speaking from personal experience. I once landed AS350 carefully on the flat strip at the rear of the starboard skids, then applied a little too much downward pressure on the collective and ground resonance kicked in immediately - it happens too easily. I lifted off at once and repeated the landing, this time with micro-millimeters of pressure easing on the collective for an uneventful setdown. Never to be repeated again.
