Hello Guys,

I am flying again after being down because of whether and Transponder failure. I replaced a Radair transponder unit for a King KT76A. I bought it used from a shop in Calif.

Anyway I am still planing to send Rich my weight and balance figure when he gets relocated. I was not able to get any pictures of tufts on the elevator so will fly with a chase plane to take pictures as soon as the weather clears some here in Denver, CO.

I have flown three times since I had a nightmare landing. I decided I could do it and learn what it takes to do it right. I went to the airport and watched the Lears and Cessna Citations land. They come in with enough power to maintain the airplane level through decent and across the fence. The descent is controlled, at that attitude with power. At about touch down the power comes back some and the nose is raised about 5 degrees and held at that pitch until touch down. I have had 3 perfect landings since by doing it just that way. I practiced this at altitude first and saw what it took to hold these attitudes. When I get a few more landings under my belt I might change that some but for now, I am actually touching down about 65 to 70 mph indicated. What a relief, I don't think I will part it our now. HA!!!!!

I had an experience I would like to compare with your guys though.  I was flying straight and level in the practice area, indicating about 140 when all of a sudden the plane pitched up about 15 degrees, then down about 15 degrees etc. It was bang - bang --bang- bang, very rapid and violent. This happened about 3 times before I could pull the power, then it stopped. Question: Has anyone else experienced this action? Did I fly through a front that was rolling? Did I hit someone else's wake? I didn't see any aircraft in the area. I even turned around and scanned the sky and no one else was in sight.  It was like flying through a roll cloud. I've never experienced this before.

At the right speed, could this have been an interaction between the wing root filets and the tail? Anybody care to speculate? I got back and have careful gone through the plane and I find nothing loose.

Jesse,

You weren't over the Bermuda triangle at the time were you?
