Can we plaese discuss the issue here? We have parts of the landing gear on one of the most popular airlines penetrating the wing SURFACE during retraction.
In the Jet Airways case, the trunnion pin failed, Andrasz claims this can also happen if the actuator attachment fails?
This is not good, and I have never read anything about this in the 20 years I have been flying 737s.
Is it possible to spot this when I do my walk around?
And can I end up with a unsafe gear because of this?
