As I stated originally, it would depend on the specific airplane. I also stated that I would probably opt for a gear up in the airplane that I fly if the runways weren't very long.avbug said:Well now...that would depend on the airplane and the system. I have experienced that very thing, and no, I didn't opt for a gear up landing.
What type of airplane did this occur in? What happened? Most aircraft have such redundancy that this is not supposed to be possible...but I'm sure it's happened more times than we all know.
I thought you, of all people, would realize that that may not always be an option. Of course, I'm not going to land at my original destination if it's a 5,000ft strip and there's a 15,000 runway with CAVU 10 miles away.Had the runways been exceptionally short, I'd have opted to land somewhere else.
