Morning All, hope you don't mind me posting this here. If I put it in R & N I'd get eaten alive !

Yesterday, 4-7-11 at about 17.30hrs a Qatar 340 - 600 was on short finals into LHR with no landing gear extended. I was driving through Datchet at the time and watched it for as long as I could without causing a head-on. I reckon I saw it as far as the QM reservoir and still no gear.

Is there any reason to leave the gear extension until so late ?
