Ok Oscar, everyone else has been exceedingly polite. I guess that
leaves me back here in the Peanut Gallery:
"Heck, you could take that show on the road! That's good entertainment!"
Now, you should know that I'm a smart-aleck and I'm just giving you a
hard time, but when I heard you rev yer engine a couple of times and
bounce on down the runway, I couldn't help but think about the air show
that (I think) Duane Cole did: he'd dress up as an old lady taking her
first flight lesson and he'd bounce around and slip the plane along the
runway at 20' altitude and make the plane hop and jump and do aileron
rolls around the air field while the announcer played it all up, "OH!
There she goes! Someone better get in that plane before she hurts
herself. OH MY! Goodness! WHOA, NELLY!" etc. etc.
"The pond, Oscar! Head for the pond!"
;-)
oh for heavens sakes,

Dan; thanks for your comments. First I'll state the
facts, then the disclaimer. The facts are that I did
just about everything wrong that could be done wrong on
that landing. Took my focus out of the cockpit and put
it on the observers on the ground since I knew they had
a camera going. Started my roundout too high, then when
the airplane started to balloon, I punched in power but
then changed my mind and told myself to pull the power,
pull back the stick, and hold it back so then it came
down hard and bounced. Forgot to hold
upwind aileron and let the wing start lifting.
The disclaimer is that this was one of my first solo
landings in the airplane, shortly after I got signed off
in it. Also, it was breezy and hot that afternoon.
Today I am a far better Piet pilot and I make superb
landings every time now.
And if you'll buy that, I have a healthcare plan I'd like
to sell you...

Wow Oscar! That looks like a landing I made.......... today! Sometimes ya get
beautiful ones, sometimes ya get ugly ones. Oh well. Seriously though what
really makes you get better at landing is making a landing like that and then
straightening it out and calming it down. That's where you really feel out the
airplane and know you have control of it.

I'd be willing to bet that we've all made "memorable" landings.
I say post 'em if you got 'em. Critiques are welcomed.
The benefits will be twofold, we might learn something and we'll all feel
better knowing that not all landings are greasers.
Here is mine:

You're right about that one Greg-- we've all made memorable landings but that one
you posted didn't look bad at all---just
a skip and you were down.
The chances of a perfect greaser landing are inversely proportional to the amount
of people watching at any given time.
Einstein came up with that theory.

THAT's a bad landing?!
Oh man, I'm going to have to fly into Janesville and truck the Piet
over to Brodhead if THAT's a bad landing.

Wow, now this is fast action. On Wednesday I asked the list if
anyone had a splash page for showing with a Piet at fly-ins. A day
and a half later the attached shows up from Barry Davis. Thanks Barry
- it'll go over great at the Jackson Co. Fly-In tomorrow!
