A380 hard landing at Oshkosh - video
"Darkwing" wrote
http://www.avweb.com/avwebflash/excl...re2009_AirbusA 380_HardLanding_200850-1.html Firm... yes, but not near as bad as Gryder makes it out to be. Now...if the wheels had bounced off the runway, that would probably be classified as a hard landing. Remember, in order to meet the certification standards, the transport category aircraft must be able to land with a 600fpm sink rate at MLGW and with a 360fpm sink at MTOGW. This aircraft was nowhere near those numbers. Gryder's comment about the aircraft still being useable is more befitting a comedian than an aviation professional.
