SkyWest is going mainline, replacing RJs with larger aircraft. The new ASA will be providing regional feed and taking over all SKYW RJs.

You talking about ONT?

 

[ehaecker]

I'd assume he is talking about the nose gear-up landing in ONT.

I did a test flight a few weeks ago on a 200 that had problems with the gear coming down. The head of MX in ORD told me that they are having TONS of gear problems a week on the 200s. Keep your eyes open for a new AD like the flap fail bs!

I had it happen to me 2 weeks ago. Came down when I pulled the manual handle.

Good job to the Skywest crew in ONT. Funny how that didn't get as much press as a mistake does.

A Skywest Canadair CRJ-200, registration N925SW performing flight OO-6467 from San Francisco,CA to Ontario,CA (USA) with 24 passengers and 3 crew, was on approach to Ontario when the crew aborted the approach reporting an unsafe gear indication for the nose gear. The crew entered a holding to troubleshoot the problem, but was unable to lower the nose gear. A low approach to Ontario to have the tower inspect the landing gear showed, that the nose gear was up with the nose gear doors open. The crew declared emergency and performed a nose gear up landing on runway 26L about one hour after aborting the first approach. No injuries occured, the damage to the aircraft is unclear.

The airport closed both runways following the landing, runway 26R was re-opened about 20 minutes after landing.

The FAA reported, that the airplane landed with the nose gear restricted. An investigation has been initiated.

CRJ-200 is a POS and should be banned from flying forever. Just my humble opinion though.

The news can't even get the story straight on which Ontario. Besides there is no city in Canada called Ontario. Even if there was a city called Ontario in Ontario Province could a CRJ200 make it that far from SFO?
