Belly Landing in Liberia ?
Wondering if anyone has heard of a Monrovia based, Canadian operated Dash 7 that did a "gear up" landing in a remote strip in Liberia in the past few months?? I think it was being operated for the UN mission there....:ooh:

Trans Capital Air Dash 7 C-GLPP reportedly landed at Tchien/Zwedru with u/c retracted on May 1, 2006. No reported injuries to pax/crew.

I have heard the news as "the gear was forgotten" but no details as of yet. It is quite hard to leave the dunlops up on this machine so lets see what info is forthcoming. :uhoh:
Being a rumour network we should not have to wait long:E |
And here comes the gossip... :)
Had a drink with one of the people that was on board... pretty high up guy but I won't name any names... he also says that they forgot the gear... OOPS!!! :ouch: |
And here you can find the full story as reported in the local papers
