.very early 76 daze many years ago 2 Training Capts had a similar event in Australia. Disabled the gear warning while practicing something…then wandered back to the airport, shot an approach to land. Can’t recall if they touched down or just broke some antennas
Maybe you're mentioning our C & T, only person I know of to do so in a 76 in Oz, damage limited to
antennas. One of those things that can happen to anybody, the worlds highest houred 747 Captain came extremely close to doing same, and that was with every member of the cockpit crew being C & T.
