"Bobble?"


That must be one of those new "highly technical" terms I'm not familiar
with. g


bobble [n]: 1: a repeated bobbing movement

bobble [v]: frequentative of bob

bob [vi]: 1 a: to move up and down briefly or repeatedly *
* * * * * * b: to emerge, arise, or appear suddenly or unexpectedly


Land planes do the same to a lesser extent. If a student applies
insufficient back pressure during the takeoff roll the plane will
bobble. In a sea plane though the amount of back pressure required can
be very precise, vs a land plane where you can just pull back.
