The PA-30 is not a KILLER, it developed an undeserved reputation right after production was started due to the FAA regs. on VMC demonstrations and instructors who were acustomed to the Apache. The VMC was raised by 10 MPH to prevent the aircraft from actually reaching the loss of control during VMC demonstrations. There were also VMC and stall related accidents in 310's, Travel Airs, Barons, etc. and the FAA revised the regs. to promote safe operation. As far as landing the TC it is a combination of the laminar flow wing and short main gear struts that make it difficult to "grease" it on. Don't get upset about slightly firm landings as I doubt your instructor or DE can consistently "grease it either" Flown by the book and by the numbers the TC is no more a KILLER than any other aircraft.
