Virgin Atlantic 43 has gear problem
This 747 is actually still in te air at the time of me posting and the problem is its far right main gear is not coming down. (flightaware.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Landed safely. Photos of underside show right outer main gear failed to deploy... I suspect the reason for the return to Gatwick was the gear failed to retract properly before failing to deploy upon return.
Worthless video for the titled event. However, the front on view of the landing is worth loading the site. Nice video.

Many shots of partly extended/partly retracted landing gear. Kudos not just to the flight crew, but also the cabin crew and ever person who trained them.
