I have been an an Emergency Prepared Landing (Abnormal Landing - suspected main trunk landing gear failure) ... and I can say in absolute honesty - that YES the training I was given FULLY prepared me for what we went through and how well the situation was handled.

I am off to bed now ... but if you'd like the full story let me know and I'll be only too happy to give details when I am next on.

I agree with the above ... unless you have been in the situation (as my crew and myself were) you can not assess how well you are going to act/react. There were four of us on a B737-300 ... 3 of the crew (myself included) worked together brilliantly. The fourth crew member (first week online) panicked and was given a pax seat and left out of the proceedings. So I have seen first hand how a crew member can fall apart and how amazingly well prepared the rest of us were.
