Hardy incident at YPDN

Has anyone heard about a incident in past 48 hours at YPDN?
Gear up landing or something?

Scan of news reveals nothing but heard on the rumor vine?

Hardy Metro on a training flight lost hydraulics and had to manually lower the gear.

Hardy spokesman described it as a non-event that the crew were trained to handle.

Reporter breathlessly announced the cause of the malfunction as "a component in the hydraulic system that cracked prematurely".

Gotta hate those premature cracks.
