This is starting to look like a company SOP or training problem. In my many years as an airline pilot I have never witnessed such strange behavior from an airliner during landing.

Very strange. What would cause such odd flare / touchdown ocillation. I mean the nose gear does not look to even contact the runway during the ocillation. This leads me to think that they have a massive amount of thrust still in when they touchdown, also preventing spoiler extension.

WTF???
