Hard landing involving a Cessna Aircraft Company R182, VH-ALI, Geelong Airport, VIC on 5 July 1994

The pilot flew three passengers out of Geelong on a private pleasure flight. Upon return he performed a normal circuit and approach with the intention of a full stop landing. On touchdown the aircraft bounced slightly. The pilot applied slight forward pressure on the control column. A second slightly higher bounce occurred. A third and final bounce resulted in a heavy landing which broke off the nosewheel.
