He bounced it, then forced the nose down and started porposing.  You see guys get into this situation in small airplanes more frequently.  Very lucky everyone walked away, and it didn't wind up like this one.

I wonder if the Captain or the Co-pilot was flying that leg.  Regardless, I am certain the event was "too close for their laundry". ;)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
