Big iron landing porpoise
I generally never post links to things like this but this video clip is
an exception... I think it's a 737, and its landing gear proved to be much stouter than I'd ever have expected it to be. Yikes! http://www.jokaroo.com/extremevideos/badlanding.html |

What about the wingtips?

Look at the wingtips. Looks more like an Airbus, probably a 319 or 320. |

You're right, I didn't notice any the first time I watched it. It has the
'delta' shaped winglets, above & below the wing. "Cal Vanize" wrote in message ... It has Airbus style winglets. |

Yikes! http://www.jokaroo.com/extremevideos/badlanding.html That is so obviously a fake....or at least I would HOPE it's obvious. Never can tell these days, with the state of public education and all....

I'm sure the first time most of us saw that was on the T.V. commercial.
I would be surprised if they actually went out and did that to an airplane for a T.V commercial. I'm sure they just computer gen'd it up. I wouldn't think the FAA would be too happy about busting up a plane for a commercial. |

I'm sure they just computer gen'd it up. I wouldn't think the FAA would be too happy about busting up a plane for a commercial. Never saw the commercial. But I'm just going by the fact hat it bounces so fast and hard. Anyone who's even watched an airliner land would realize they just couldn't bounce that fast. Just think of the ride for the passengers and crew. Also, for those who know something about planes, just look at the elevator. No movement whatsoever. Remember the video of that one test flight of the F-22 where the flight control system went whacky and the thing was porposing? Even that, a high performace fighter, wasn't bouncing that fast.
