The Ace Air Canada Nipple Rouge Four Bars tried it in Jamaica and blew out the landing gear:
[quote]At 40 feet AGL the airspeed had dropped to 115 KIAS, the pitch was 9.9 degrees nose up at 13.9 degrees angle of attack... touchdown occurred about 125 feet past the runway threshold at the maximum of [u]15.3 degrees angle of attack[/u], 7.7 degrees nose up, 108 KIAS and a vertical load of +3.12G[/quote]
Don't do that, ok?
On the bright side, they landed on the runway they were cleared for, which is above average for them.
