I hope the landing Gear failure doesnt lead to another safety matter for Boeing. Boeing already has a lot on the plate with the 737 MAX
I doubt it will.... The Max was a new design... this gear has been around for a Very Very long time.
Seems like VAS Aviation got the audio of the declaration and procedures

Scary....One of my friends was pilot #7 for Fedex. Paid for fuel with her credit card. These guys and gals are GREAT!!!!!!!
Appears to me that the No. 1 engine was still running(?) - sparks blown backwards (compared to fixed runway lighting) especially as the a/c slowed. Would the crew attempt to use engine thrust to counter friction pulling bird to the left? If so, it worked well - skilled pihot!
I thought so. Great job to the pilots! No surprise the egress is dangerous no matter how it's done.
