All of the Bobcats in your gallery are Turbine, they don't have a large turning speed brake that will hit the pavement if you land at a high AOA . If you try that move with this plane (propped version) it will bounce hard or if you do make it onto the mains you will have a prop strike.

Your post came off pretty pretentious and I think you ticked some people off. These guys know what they are talking about in regards to this particular model when prop driven.

My bobcat has a .75 and is a pig, making the landing more manageable was a chore until I sorted out the spoileron setup. None of these guys that have posted about hot landing are dumb, they know what they are talking about.

By all means if you are talking about a propped version like we are flying then my hat is off to you, but if you are trying to compare a propped version with your turbines, it is apples and oranges when it comes to landing.
