Good find - man, he held that thing really nice right off the runway while he bled off that excess airspeed. Looks like he found that sweet spot and just held it. After a quick paint job and a once over by maint. I bet that thing will be back in the air (at least by VT-31 standards ;) )

That was sweet. Good find.

For awhile in Advanced it seemed like every time I ate anywhere on base they had an emergency aircraft landing with some kind of gear problem. The only memorable one was a guy with a nose gear stuck up; he landed it beautifully but nearly fell on his face getting off the plane.

I think you've got a story you forgot to tell me...

What I meant was that the news was showing civilian planes landing with some kind of gear malfunction.
