As I said, I only just heard about it and I don't know when or where.. I was hoping someone would be able to share some info about this, if it infact has occured. The person who told me said the 737 is grounded at the moment and apparently also the skipper who planted it...

Memory serves you well Notso..

At about 7 degrees nose up and 11 degrees worth of bank the trailing edge flap fairing will make ground contact.. Also on the new 737 stretched versions (800/900) the LE slats will also make ground contact...
