Ref+18, 1500fpm in the flare, no spoilers used, no rev, three bounces, four (4) separate touchdowns...
Reverser logic confused by the bounces, so they were stuck open and thwarted a go-around attempt. Facepalm is too kind. |

WTF is what comes to mind.
Maybe they didn't have any airline background, but holy crap GO AROUND is the mantra now days and this is the perfect illustration why it is pushed so hard. Pure luck that no one died. |
