Having changed numerous 737-300 MLG's in the past, they not easy to remove and install.

If you look at the trunnions they are both exposed and appear to be intact.

Could be a major failure of either the fwd or aft MLG supports as suggested on some earlier posts.

And for old mate 4 holes, plenty of aircraft have landed with main wheels deflated, antiskid inop or strut deflated and they have not resulted in a MLG collapse.

If I remember correctly, Ansett had something similar happen on one of the 737-300's. Gear wouldn't come up on departure at Melbourne, but they got 3 greens when they selected it back down. Landed back at MEL Ok & the problem was found when the gear was inspected. It was suggested that they were very lucky that the gear didn't collapse.

For that 4 holer parked at BNE to fly to or from any Australian port will require issue of a FAOC. Just a minor detail, of course, but it will require someone in CASA to make a courageous decision.

Funny that a regular Fin Review reader would not be acquainted with the term Brissy.
