something is missing, isn't it?
Luckily they made it.
N-joy.

"HEY! Quit whining! I got us here, didn't I?"

[Penguin]

Good that they made it!
Nothing on the news about the incident here yet. It's hard to see, was there foam on the runway?

[kranz]

was there foam on the runway?
yes.

If they get enough notice the fire and rescue crews will spread foam on the runway to retard any ignition of fuels. I imagine the runway will be closed for some time, firstly to disperse the foam, secondly to inspect for damage.

Beers all round, I think, it all looked textbook on all sides. :yeah:

And that original link has been removed, use kranz's. :yep:

Hmm some thieving git nicked the landing gear.

Glad they got down safe and well though :yep:

[MH]

Textbook gear up landing, massive kudos to the pilot, crew and ground-crew for making it work. :rock:

[CCIP]

Professional job! Any landing you walk away from is a good one, and this was definitely above-good. Shame about the plane, but the pilot looks like he did everything right.

[Polak]

Here you have some more clips, and pictures of the plane when it's on the ground.

Good job of the pilots! :up:

[U570]

Extremely good job of the pilots. The landing was probably smoother than any I've ever seen. :yeah::up::woot:

[JU_88]

Increadible landing! smoother than some of the landings ive had on wheels! That pilot is a real pro.
Its times like this the Civilian Airline pilot show that he is not a glorified bus driver, but a life saving hero, That said Boeing deserve their fare share of the credit for this too (Im assuming the failed gear was a maintinance issue) Since some where in the world a 767 probably lands on it wheels every 10-20 seconds or so.

[Jimbuna]

Top marks to a very skillful pilot :yeah:
