Title: EMERGENCY!!!!

Question,

What was your approach speed?

If you come in to "hot" then most aircraft have a tendency to "float". Even if it performed fine during the approach, at about 50ft you hit a cushion of air that is formed by the downward motion of your aircraft hitting the ground and pushing you up.

In that case I have a tendency to push the stick forward and land it. That's impatience on my part and I'm schooling that out of me.

I remember one time hitting the ground at 250KTs.

Yeah... Didn't get that plane stopped on that runway. Or the next...

I do remember taking the 5 back to the airport, first, no second exit.

I'll notify the maintence personnel. Next time, you buy them the beers Smile

Don't remember what my approach speed but let me put it this way. I was thinking about going online and looking at what the stall speed was.
