A330 OGE with Abnormal Landing Gear
I was recently in the Sim and we did an Abnormal Landing Gear exercise which resulted in a successful landing with the nose gear retracted.
On coming to a stop and setting the parking brake we called ATC to advise us of any sign of fire from the nose area.
The Instructor said 'never mind that, Evacuate!'.
So, we did the OGE.
Afterward I told him I appreciated the fact that the Sim Check required an OGE as part of the standard - but in real life - would he really want to Evac with the tail pointing in the sky? Unless there was clear and present danger? Passenger injuries were inevitable.
He said yes. Always Evac for aircraft damage.
I strongly disagree.
What do you lot think?
