First choice 767 BAD landing in Barbados

A first choice livery, thomson airways flight from Gatwick to Barbados. Landing in Barbados we made a pretty bad landing and i dont know why because the weather was fine. There is no video for the return flight because first choice double booked our seats and we were sat in the middle, I was gutted :( Also notice the reverse thrust did'nt kick in for a long time! 06/01/09.

its the fact the gear lean foward

@Aviationnation10 I know, the 767 tends to be a hard 1 to make it land smoothly! Its really common that they land like this, it just seems really rough from in the cabin!

I think generally the 767 tends to touch down a bit hard, that's what I've heard. It's not the most graceful plane out there

[rachaelmatt]

@danielfisher94 yeah, thats what I've noticed since.

DID WE LAND OR WERE WE SHOT DOWN

[dur7y]

[b44ts]

I think he let the plane have its head from about 30 feet !

[davidmorgan743]

thomson have a target touchdown, the pilot must aim to touchdown at between 100fpm and a max of 400fpm
