Flew the aircraft (3-4-8) for the last six years, here's my ten cent:
- Loss of HYD SYS A on short final (<1500ft AGL), completing LG extension qty dropped to 5 and pressure lost (leak in the nose gear extend line), a/c was already configured with landing flaps, by recall I selected (as PM) Flt Cont switch to STBY RUD, deselected autobrake and selected ALTN NWS as the option was fitted on the a/c; decided with F/O to continue for landing. Normal landing but upon vacating the runway we discovered that even with NWS ALTN selected only the rudder pedal steering was available and the tiller was stuck; completed rwy exit from high speed twy and called for tow to reach the stand.
- RH main gear uplock failure, rh gear was very slow retracting and when depressurizing the system with the LG lever in OFF the wheel was falling down. Considering the short flight (1 hr) and no fuel problems we continued to destination with the wheels held up with LG lever in UP position. As an extra precaution we maintained the speed below the LG extend limitation.
- Flying out with a new fitted generator climbing to cruising altitude the low oil pressure light started to come out (initially only flickering when encountering light turbulence); started the APU and disconnected generator, on the ground techs found out that the o-ring of the oil servicing cap was incorrectly fitted and oil was slowly leaking out.
That's what I recall at the moment, anyway a VERY nice and sturdy aircraft!
