BA038 Well. From Google I saw no evidence of a tail plant, all I saw as evidence of its arrival were two trenches caused by the main landing gear settling into the turf. These parallel "trenches" seem rather 'normal' for most of a quarter mile, at which point the right main dug in, failed, and was followed by the left gear. Slewing to the right, the a/c settled onto its engines, turned further right, then stopped. Like the Umpire says, "SAFE". But for the "short" all is well. As critical and sarcastic as I like to be, I have nothing but admiration for the Crew, in all respects. Wait, isn't this the Turkish thread?
