That landing looks smoother than a Kashmir codpiece. I am a bit jealous, puts most normal landings to shame that I have experienced

can someone tell me WHY a landing gear could do such of FAIL ? I mean this could be end as a tragic
I could swallow that 1 of the gear fails BUT the three all gears system,

Posted: Thu Nov 03, 2011 12:21 pmI'm imagining the bystander conversations.
Bob:HEY LOOK, There's a plane landing without a gear and it might amount to a terrible crash and the passengers may need our help.
Billy: Quick get a camera,

Posted: Fri Nov 04, 2011 2:39 pmThe 767 does not have a manual system to let the gear down if the primary fails. What it has is an electric backup that trips the up-lock boxes to go into free fall to extend the gear. It would appear and I am only speculating that the aircraft suffered a multi system failure. I would guess electrical on the initiation side of the hydraulics and then on the electric up-lock trip circuit. The 737 system is much simpler, a small panel beside the co-pilot with three cable pullers, one for each leg. A direct link to the up-lock boxes from the cockpit.........KISS....................Keep It Simple Stupid!!

Shocking. And to think they've progressed to be the worlds leading commercial aircraft company. Then again, that said, an ANA 737 did almost do a barrel roll in September after a mistake was made using a piece of switchery on a 700/800 that was identified as potentially fatally unsafe on a 300/400 20 years ago...
VC10 has 3 levers in the radio bay to freefall the gear under gravity, one for the nose, and two for the mains, so they could all be lowered if necessary, whatever system failed.
It also came with a man to lower them...
