news:fc8yg.84357$ZW3.70188@dukeread04... If you splashdown in a Lake with the wheels down, the water will enter the nosewheel compartment and cause some very serious problems with the next take-off. The airplane will perform an imitation of a submarine. How many times have you landed a Lake in the water with the wheels down? What data do you have to support your claim that the consequences you mention are assured? And why in the world do you think that water in the nosewheel compartment will "cause some very serious problems with the next take-off"? For someone who presumes to know what will happen in a gear-down landing in a Lake amphib, it's interesting to note that you clearly have no idea that the nosewheel compartment of a Lake amphib is not watertight, and that water inside it is not an issue whatsoever. I am amazed at your willingness to make claims regarding topics you obviously know nothing about. |
