Gear up landings are no big deal for a typical GA plane. When I worked
in operations at a regional airport I was a trained ARFF responder and
none of the wheels-up landings I ever responded to involved any fire.
We'd just roll out the trucks into position and wait for the plane to
land and skid to a stop. But it still sucks for that guy with the 210 -
I guess the gear hand pump was inop? Engine teardown, new prop, belly
skins.. ouch.. Not to mention the loss of the airplane for X months for
repair. Truly a bad day, but could have been worse.
