Just because the Duchess and CRJ-200 are easy to land doesn't make them nice to land...they roll down the runway like loose goose's and hit the runway like a rolling pig - not exactly pleasant.
Give me stiff gear, where I can occasionally really grease the bird on and I'm happy!
Remember kids - the -200 makes most landings good, but a great landing impossible. Rise to the challenge that a stiff gear gives you!
