Gareth's photo of XA 941 reminded me of an incident when it had trouble lowering one main leg. A foam carpet was put down at Wittering and the pilot landed keeping the aircraft on the two remaining wheels until it just about stopped with very little damage at all. The story goes that civilian fire engines were lined up on the A1 outside the camp entrance because nobody told the "snoop" on the gate what was happening.
