Gear up landing

Wed Mar 26, 2008 9:42 am

I saw a post on the Cessna Pilots Association Forum, of a gear up landing of a Val. I guess it happened in San Marcos, TX. Anyone else see this, they say it happened yesterday. Nobody hurt thank goodness.

:shock:
Must have been a "Kate", since Vals don't have a retractable undercarriage! Anyway, I'm glad there were no injuries.

Val's have fixed gear. Kate perhaps?

Sorry :oops: Yes it was as Kate, I'm a bit rusty on my Japanese aircraft make and model. :(
