Hi Paul

Thanks for the Link.

Did you read about the Cessna 337 breaking up over the airport on the same Link near the bottom of the page?

Yep.

Read that, Doug... ...

Something went terribly wrong there!...

Maybe the pilot was seriously distracted during the final approach to land...too high a speed, and wheels up...and panic at the last moment?

A very bad outcome, and another 337 lost.

Paul.

P.S. There are times that I worry about that very complicated landing gear arrangement in the 337 and 182RG. It takes ages to raise and lower it...never leave it too late for landing!
Its a funny-old, complex, hydraulic system. Too many things to go wrong!
