I was chasing a similar bug with the Harrier at one point: under certain circumstances, it almost kinda seemed like you could get the gear "stuck" under the ground in such a way that the spring force wasn't applied, but the damping was. So you could (vertically) land hard, and the aircraft would sink slowly for a about half a second before the gear "re-engaged" and popped you up above ground. This may be the same thing. I never did find it, and at the time I could only make it happen (and not very reliably) with the Harrier.
