FTA twinstar I think it was YBX
I was on the ground at the time
2 Pax ok, aircraft is still on 03L now
Nothing said to TWR prior to landing so no apparent issues with the aircraft.

From the Adelaide Sunday Mail:
Disengaged? Hmmm - that's a new one!

Two people escaped injury when the wheels on their twin-engined aeroplane disengaged at Parafield Airport yesterday afternoon. The training flight, with a student and instructor on board, was forced to do a wheels-up landing. A spokesman for Parafield Airport said emergency services were called, but no one was seriously injured.

Maybe if there is any truth to this article (c'mon now they SOUND technicalogical like), maybe the regulators need to have a look at pulling the certification if a locked indication suddenly reverses itself on landing?
