Of course that is taking it for granted the pilot had the skill to belly
it in without killing everyone on board. Dang leave it to you guys! An
A&P saves a pilots butt and the poor A&P still can't get a break!
When someone knows the outcome could very well be their own
death,...hmmmm does hero come to mind? Ya'll are sure a hard crowd to
please......

and you can bet your sweet bippy , you would have crashed if you were
waiting on me to pull your gear down riding in a truck!

These guys did an excellent job.


Sorry, but I agree with Kyle. I'm glad it came out okay, but...

...those guys are dumber than a box o' rocks. A plane is nothing but
a tool, and it sure ain't worth risking lives to save -- and they put
several lives at risk with their silly stunt.

Belly the plane in, jack it up, fix it, and everyone walks away.

Perhaps the problem prevented them from bringing the gear back up?
