Most Md Airplanes are built like tanks... however they do not like a firm bounce followed by unloading the wing with the subsequent touchdown at 6 g's and the next at 8 g's. ( Im guessing most airplanes wouldnt).
Almost all of these crashes are the same....bounce, push nose over, drop like brick, yank bank , bounce, then do it again harder and harder.
