Help with the bobcat bounce....
Hi All,
I have a Bobcat composite / P-70 that has probably 40 flights on it. at first, landing the plane was a non-issue, but in the last month or so it seems that I cant seem to land a 'greaser' 1 out of 4 times!!
what always happens is what looks like a perfect base and final, followed by a nice flare on the mains, only to end up with the plane doing the death bounce from nose gear to mains a few times till the flex plates give way. no other dammage except my pride.
the only thing I can think of is that im trying to keep it flying too long, or im trying to 3-point it like a tail dragger - imac plane.
one thought was to quickly switch it out of crow the second it lands to kill all lift, but im not sure on that one...more worried about my slow fingers.
plane is set up per bvm including all throws, crow modes, etc.
thanks in advance, Kirk
