Narrative:
I wrote up a functional check flight as unsuccessful due to a bounce on landing during which I disconnected the autopilot and manually completed the landing. As I occasionally do; I checked the database to see what might have been wrong with the aircraft. The balancing entry stated that the autoland was disconnected at 2188 ft (1500 AGL). This not what I saw.
