MoodyBlue.

By firmly, I mean on intitial touch down maintain attitude and then fly the nose down. Did that for almost 6000hrs on this bird and like most A/C each one has it's own peculiarity.

Nevertheless, and notwithstanding the way the landing was flown... is 3.06g really enough to break this bird's spar like that

JTSB says largest bounce was 16ft, frst impact about 2.0g
