A runway inspection is just that - an inspection of the runway. If the debris was not on the runway then it would not have been seen.
Remember the TNT 737 which lost an undercarriage:

"a runway inspection was carried out; this confirmed that the runway was clear of any debris. However, later on, the crew of an aircraft taxiing out for departure reported to ATC that there appeared to be a landing gear leg on the grass area between the runway and taxiway."

Yes, but if you read the thread there are various references to the Embraer 145 not 195.
Hence I understand it was a E195.

All of the Flybe 'Barbie Jets' AKA Embraer 145's have found new homes. Some went to BMI Regional, some are sunning it in Greece and some are currently resting in a lonely corner of Exeter International.
It was indeed a Flybe Embraer 195 that was involved here - the mightiest of all the 'Jungle Jets'

OA32...You've sussed it out...the know-it-all you quote speaks volumes but still doesn't give details on his/her profile...I guess IAMP is on leave from his position at the "Know It All" Academy...thus the large amount of posts which actually amount to nothing...
You guys want a good laugh???...Check out "fromtheflightdeck.com" and then you'll take the guy who runs that "home page" with a grain of salt...
No wonder he doesn't post "details" in his profile...if there are any, they're obvivously "P-51"...
When do we say enough is enough with these ... oh well, guess we never will...
I will say I take personal offense to his description of a "typical" B-727 Cargo flight on his website....why???...Because there might actually be someone out there who believes that dribble...what a joke...
