Shield drop aerials always make you fast fall.

[-Fatality-]

Just like the title says, the only way to circumvent this is to immediately press up on the analog stick after the shield drop, before you use the aerial. It's especially noticeable with stuff like U-airs that aren't fast enough to still be able to hit someone on a platform with the fast fall.
