A330 undercarriage

Does anyone know a rough cost of 1 complete main undercarriage assembly and the nosewheel assembly for the A330?

Why have you just "acquired" one?

Strange - I just heard of a Captain who called "retract" after TO and the F/O hit "release" instead...

Do a search on E-Bay, I'm sure someone will have a spare one....

Seriously, not sure about 330 but a 340-600 main gear cost an airline in the region of £2 Million recently after a heavy landing that required the gear to be changed.... (not the first time either....but thats another story...)
