Help finding 139 picture from old post
I'm looking for a picutre of a 139 main landing gear on some sort of concrete or slate type pad where the pad tilted up towards the undercarriage. Think it occurred in Italy.
I've tried searching with various terms and scrolling through old posts, but no luck.
I'd really appreciate any help if someone recalls what I'm referring to.

No it's not.
It was a pad something like that, but larger individual blocks.
When they landed with a main tire to one side of a square, it was pushed down under the weight of the main gear and the other side of the same square tilted up to touch (or nearly touch) the struts.
Thanks though.

Maybe it was a screenshot from this:

If not, it is a pretty good video anyway!
