"I got told by someone who should know that the system had already been operated 5-6 times before it all went horribly wrong. There by the grace of God............"
Good standard practice dictates that after upline checks are carried out, the gear pins should be magnafluxed to ensure no damage has been done during simulated "retraction". 5 or 6 times.........brave boys for mine.
Does anyone know if the NLG downlock pin " fell out " in one piece or was it sheared ?
