Ong's De-Bongers work under pressure!

Today's test landing was conducted slightly over gross,1830 Pounds with the 
CG at 28.1inches.  686 on each main and 458 on the nose.  Tire pressures were 
42 psi in the mains and 32 psi in the nose.  The 2000 ft. density altitude, 8 
Kt cross wind and summer bumps required a powered, steeper approach.  The 
plop down was soft with no bounce.  The taxi seemed even softer than the 
light weight one.  The residue rings looked like the compression was about 
7/8 of an inch.  The other side didn't look like it compressed as much, but 
this may be due to pressure differences or a slightly uneven landing.

These dampeners are a winner for me.  Now, only time will tell.
