The aircraft settles right back on the runway. I always told new Captains and new Ck Airman to be ready to grab the spoiler handle and yank it back.
isn’t that the exact reason we had a bent 767 on landing? Didn’t the LCA manually deploy the speed brake instead of just pushing the thrust levers up and going around?

I might be mistaken
