bragging just because
I'll get some grief for this, but WTH I gotta tell *someone*
CA and I had 3 legs today, all 3 into airports with nasty gusty crosswinds, wind shear, desert thermals, all of that. 3 of the softest landings I've ever had in the 737. Not just one "oh lucky", not just two "haha go buy a lottery ticket", no. 3 in a row, 2 from my CA and one of mine. Soft like we thought we were still flying when the spoilers activated without any bouncing soft. Nosewheel softly lowered instead of slammed down. Not even any hard braking necessary to make our desired turnoff. No chattering brakes pulling into the gate. Almost like we were getting paid to do it like that. Someone said something about even a blind nut will occasionally find a squirrel, but... Well. It was a rare day, fighting weather the whole time but the landings were butter. Go ahead, flame on. It was that sweet I can't even care. |
T-38 FAIP?

My best landings are the bucking bronco all the way down! Of course, now that you have used up your three good landings early in the month…..
|
Well at least you realized you'd get grief for it.
|
Man,
I’ve gone weeks like that! I thought for sure it would last forever but, sadly, it never stays with me. |
Sometimes I wonder if the softer landings are more often followed by the tougher approaches just because the focus has to be tuned in even more, at least subconsciously. The tougher conditions really tune in the corrections for the last 30 seconds...

Guessing maintence hasn't messed with the struts yet.
