Helilog56 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 :up: Kudo's to the flight crew of the Airbus A320 that landed a few minutues ago successfully with the cocked front landing gear. Lot's of smoke and sparks with a bit of flame, but the pilots managed a picture perfect forced landing under extreme conditions...... :up: Excellent job :up: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intrepid Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Excellent job to the crew and to all that were there to support if things went bad. The worst part is most likely that the runway centreline will have to be re-painted!! :up: :punk: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopper_Stew Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Kudos to the crew. That was a flawless execution of a forced landing. I can only imagine there was a bottle of rum waiting for those pilots at the hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VALCOM Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Thank God for differential braking and the pilot's ability to keep his wits about him. He even saved the airline a bunch of money by not deploying the chutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
