No landing is hard...they are all "professionally firm"...
 
The Dc8 is (was) a notorious hard landing airplane. You knew it was a real hard landing when all the oxygen masks came loose and were on the floor, your vision temporarily goes blurry and there is dust falling from the overhead for 3 minutes after the landing........LOL
 
Salina Kansas at night. I don't know if it was the extra wide runway or the fact I needed some of that Flower love. It was pretty damn bad!
 
Every dash 8 landing is a hard one. That's the result of manly landing gear with about 0 strut travel. None of this sissy trailing link multiple joints bs.

I stopped caring, no walk of shame here. Don't like it, then fly an Rj with less room and lean backward to pee.

Took the words right out of my mouth... Trailing link gear, heck gear with actual struts, are for wussies.

haha yea salina is one of those runways where you can afford to leave pavement behind on the landing roll as you go for that greaser.
