And yeah, I've bounced an airplane.
But I'm pretty confident the 747 can't bounce... because I have tried my best to do it! I even know one guy who slapped it on at 2.08g's. No bounce.
Carry on.

Lol. PotatoChip can't win in this thread. That will happen when you toolishly judge another pilot's landing and then bust out a Trump-like alternative fact that is clearly very wide of the mark.

Would have liked to see that bounce, though!

Go Jet Captain playing Star Wars music and giving Star Wars themed announcements. Thinks he’s also a comedian with lots of jokes that were duds. Made a PA in IMC pointing out that those on the left and right could look out their windows see what the inside of a cloud looked like.
The PA’s were long and painful. Guy sitting behind me said out loud “who told that guy he was funny?”
Truly embarrassing to the profession.
