Does anyone know if the NLG downlock pin " fell out " in one piece or was it sheared ?
The pin was a 'long' (circa 2m?) pin left in by the tow crew (not BA!) The pin actually fell out, apparently after the several selections. There is every possibility that it may have got caught in the doors as they operated.
