Just over a week ago, inbound to FAJS got the usual slow down to just under stall speed on a STAR taking more time than the whole flight, got told: "slowest speed for 21L, following emergency on the right".

Looking for plane in distress and what do we see? The new Link 146.

Turns out: Link trainer was on a proving flight with CAA on board, very proud of their first 'push-backble' aircraft, and they left the nose gear pin in!!

......

Of course it's happened to me, that's why I am allowed to laugh my head off!!
