AMC MD83 landing without nose gear...video
Some great crew work as last 722 of IranAir, it seems »»»
Last evening at Karachi Accident: AMC MD83 at Karachi on Dec 25th 2011, landed without nose gear |
Saudia MD-83.
|
It's AMC, an Egyptian Company, not Saudi.
|
Sorry. You are right. It is AMC but is Saudi registered.
|
SU reg is Egyptian...Saudi reg is HZ
|
nose wheel missing
Where are the emergency crews ?
|
Was wondering the same thing, camera crew at the ready, but noticable absence of blue light adorned vehicles rushing to their aid.
|
camera crew at the ready, Its difficult to see clearly through the overlay, but I get the impression that the front door is open well before the aircraft stops, and something, possibly a slide, pops out and is swept away. Look at around 6 to 10 sseconds. |

Today's paper says pax were Saudi royals (and their servants no doubt) on their annual bustard shoot.
Maybe this scare will keep them away; they have decimated the bird and it is an endangered species. But I wouldn't count on it. The government does nothing so as to keep their relations "friendly" and may be get some free oil in return. |
Maybe it is time Aviation Maintenance Company should start doing proper maintenance..
|
err .. royals don't fly 20 year old MD-83s ..
The contents of the plane was some Saudi Tribal chieftain on his annual hunting expedition .. or so I am told .. with his 'hunting' team .. (I wonder if it is the type where the main man fires, and the backup also fires at the same target to make sure the main man 'got' the shot .. :D :Dno kidding .. I did see it once .. .. hidden shooters making sure the main guy got the target .. ) |
You mean like the JFK incident ?

This video shows the emergency vehicles following aircraft after it touched down.
