I often mention my love of cars, boats, trains and planes,
but I would not like to be on this one!
only the nose wheel of this Fokker 100 airplane deployed, so a belly landing had to be made, but before that passengers had to brace themselves for a number of sharp manoeuvres as the pilot tried to shake the wheels loose, basically the pilot 'bumps' the plane in the air to try and free the landing gear, horribly scary, finally they were told to prepare for a crash landing,
the good news was that all 78 passengers and crew emerged largely unhurt, although one flight attendant was taken to hospital for observation and five passengers were treated for shock, well done to pilot and crew.
