Default RE: A Question about Hard Landings and Strong Landing Gear

Some guys just can't be bothered to learn those non-flashy technical parts of the hobby like landings. A slow stick practically lands itself. I suppose you could botch it by diving the plane straight in, but other than that it's hard to mess up. But some guys take years to develop a feel for managing that stall in the final seconds of the landing procedure, and bounce them in as a result.
