Anybody see this video of an RV-7A landing at OSH? I thought it was very interesting to see the nosegear oscillation. Definitely NOT the recommended way to land a nosewheel RV! Start watching at 1:55...

Just to make it easier for others to find, it is the daily update video from Monday.

Geez

I'm surprised the MAIN gear stayed on after that landing. Oh.........

I've seen a lot worse. I saw one C-170 dropped in from about 5' on Sunday afternoon at Osh. I felt sorry for the poor airplane, and I'm sure whoever was flying wasn't too pleased either.

The nosegear oscillation is something I've seen time and time again on -A's.. Good landings, bad landings, fast taxi, slow taxi, the nosegear on some of the -A's has a definite fore/aft vibration/wobble...
