Additionally, should only the nose gear come down, it is a better option to actually land with the gear fully retracted. I think there are other non-desirable landing configurations, but I don't have the checklist in front of me right now. The Canadian C-119 (and probably others too) have a big hairy warning in the dash one about 'never landing on the mains only'. Apparently it's supposed to roll up into a little ball if you do. Also it's forbidden to attempt a ditching...sure death they say. I sure wouldn't argue with the manufacturer. -- -Gord.
