[Bumpy landing - Go around] Japan Airlines Boeing 777-300 (JA8941) at ITM (Osaka - Itami)

Japan Airlines Boeing 777-300 (JA8941 - Doraemon Jet livery) was trying to land on runway 32L of ITM (Osaka - Itami International Airport in Japan), but his touchdown was bumpy and hit the tail skid (equipment to avoid direct tail strike) on the runway. Finally the pilots decided to carry out go-around.
After this minor incident, the runway 32L was temporarily closed to check the runway damage for 30 mins.

Fortunately the JA8941 safely landed on the same runway after the runway was reopened. No injuries reported :D however the aircraft received minor damage to the tail skid...

Date: May 9, 2010 19:11JST
Runway: 32L
Location: Near RWY 32L end (Senri river)
Coordinates for Google Map: N34.771475, E135.454051
Flight: JL2016 from CTS (Sapporo - New Chitose Airport in Japan)
Camera: DMC-TZ7 (w/o tripod)

Note: innapropriate expression "porpoise" was deleted (08/01/2011). thanks for many discussions for this video :)

This is not a porpoise, its just a bounce

I am glad they did a go around instead of ending up like those Fed Ex pilots who crashed at NRT.

If that had been filmed during daytime it would have been world-news straight away. Absolutely awsome to watch. Thanks for uploading!

Think I saw a spark made by the tail skid at 0:32

o my god

[averredude101]

wow... I wonder why the pilots did not execute a go around immediately? That was dangerous the way they decided to go around after several bumps

nice video

Search youtube for "B777-300 weird hard bouncy landing" and watch the Korean Airlines landing in a similar fashion, but day time

seems almost impossible that something of that weight can bounce so, i dont know if freely is the right word but still.
