That would be hogging and sagging Duck. It does pay to know what you are looking for

The one aircraft type that seemed to always present a soft landing, to me at least, was / is the Bae146 and descendants.
Is that just my perception?

If others agree, why is it so?
Is it the anhedral wing configuration that does that?
Possibly that rather uncommon trailing link MLG?

Trailing Link Undercarriage :ok:
Still capable of hard landings, just have to work harder for it.
