Maybe not the first hard landing of a Swiss BAE-146 at LCY but in August a Swiss BAE-146 had a very, very hard landing and ended up with damage to her belly. 3 months later she finally left LCY for Switzerland in December.
I flew in and out of LCY back in 2005 on an Air France BAE-146 and I have to say I certainly didn't have a hard landing but the angle of attack when you are on final approach is intense! When I got out of the plane I watched the same arrival that we had just followed except with a VLM F-50 and it was an incredible dive.

Looks like he also had a serious crosswind...he was crabbed about 15 degrees!

That was an enormous crosswind! Very hard landing...looks like the plane was swerving all over the runway!

That's great - you get to log 3 landings on one approach :D

Hahaha I could just imagine the conversation between Swiss and the pilots:
Swiss: You want us to pay you TRIPLE!
Pilots: Hey, you've seen the youtube video, three bounces, THREE LANDINGS!
