I think it was a beer commercial, but obviously trimmed and made viral  Grin


What happened? The pilot seemed to be flairing just fine. The autobrake wouldn't kick in until all of the wheels were down, would it? I suppose it was just too heavy that inertia caused the nose to fall like a sack of, well, Boeing 767. Maybe a sudden downdraft caused them to sink too much?

He bounced it, then forced the nose down and started porposing.  You see guys get into this situation in small airplanes more frequently.  Very lucky everyone walked away, and it didn't wind up like this one.

I wonder if the Captain or the Co-pilot was flying that leg.  Regardless, I am certain the event was "too close for their laundry". Wink

On the grounds that the touch down smoke from the wheels does not do anything but hang around in the in the air, I would hazard a guess that sudden wind movement had nothing to do with it. Just good old fashioned seat to sick interface failure..................
As for auto break, if memory serves, right hand main wheel oleo compression is required to for activation.....but don't quote me.... Undecided
