People were reporting it as a gear up issue.. It kinda needs to have a retractable gear for that to happen.... Thought id clarify the for bloggs.

An instructor on the ground spotted the issue.

He did not fly for five hours..

You trust the news reports?

I'm not questioning the reason behind flying for five hours if he did, rather how the actual time in the air can be so far off what really happened and reported in said news reports
