avbug said:Same thing happened at a firm where I flew some time ago. Several pilots at a particular station who were flying Seneca II and III airplanes called me to tell me about an aircraft that made a popping sound each time they applied flaps on the base leg.
Shaun,JRSLim said:We DID have the gear collapse-- the trunion bolt was never found so we can't tell if it was failure or had come loose. luckily it was on post- flight taxi, I try not to think of what would have happened if it would have gone south on landing..
