I slammed that sucker on so hard I popped 3 overhead bins open. Had the Capt in stitches as he told the folks that there was a massage parlor in B terminal and such. Hasn't happened since, but man that one sticks out in the mind.
On my 4-day IOE in the 170, my landings started out being shabby to pretty good on the last leg of the trip and feeling confident about them.
Get 3 days off and on my 1st leg on the line out of IOE and I hit pretty hard coming in ROC, severe clear and light winds. Embarassing to say the least.
