Default Scouts have bumpy landing

I thought grass gear-up landings were more hazardous than using the
runway? Things can dig into the grass, producing a much faster stop.
Although maybe it's a toss-up, as a hard surface landing might increase
the odds of a fire, depending on the type of aircraft.



I clipped the other two newsgroups, speaking of hazardous - especially
alt.disasters.aviation. Yikes!
