Frosty Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 Quote: jetdriven How did you go from being so fast that the airplane ballooned into a climb at the flare, to where you had to apply full throttle to just have a hard landing? It takes a while to bleed off that much speed, perhaps ten seconds. Quote

As we started to climb above ground effect we discovered we had an unusually low climb rate... ...All I can say, is don't raise your flaps (all the way) and gear at the same time on a hot day, because you won't like the sensation.
