Anyone hear about a nose gear failure on the 4th......Saw 9E do a low pass with only the mains down.....just wondering what the outcome was?

Did you hear anything on CNN/MSNBC/FoxNews called something along the lines of "TERROR ON THE RUNWAYS" about a jet spewing sparks and skidding to a stop anywhere? If not, everything is okay.
 
Man Pinnacle banged up another bird, I know this is nothing to do with pilot error but they are having some bad luck.

Just because you read it on Flight Info dosen't mean it actually happened. PCL did not "bang up" another bird.

I saw that. MSP 30R, correct? It looked like the mains were down, but only the nose gear doors were open.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?! HOW DID EVERYTHING TURN OUT?
 
We should probably just do away with landing gear and we wouldn't have any problems like this in the future.

Yes...that is what i saw as well......i was just wondering if they got it down....i assume they did....it wasnt all over the news.
 
what happened was they had a gear indication disagreement, declared an emergency and landed on 30L with no problems...did everything they were suppose to do by the book..
I know we were taking off 30R that day as they were coming in...
