Bumpy-Bumpy Aircraft!
This was the closest to a tail strike that I have ever seen.
I can imagine the look on the pilotīs faces!  http://www.airvids.net/view/211/bumpybumpy-aircraft/ |

Re: Bumpy-Bumpy Aircraft!
The last one of the MD-80 isn't a tail strike. Can't remember the complete story, but the FAA was on board the plane during early certification. The plane was rebuilt and flown again.

Re: Bumpy-Bumpy Aircraft!
The Airbus and MD tests are Vmu tests done during routine aicraft certification testing. Vmu is Velocity minmum unstick.
Here's a link to explain what there doing. http://www.aerospaceweb.org/question...ce/q0088.shtml
