Video - Who needs a landing gear?


Atlanta, Georgia: landing gear was not coming down


An absolutely picture-perfect gear-up landing, caught on tape by the media.

The pilot apparently raised the flaps just before touching ground not to have them ripped off, and "feathered the props" positioning the blades of the propellers so that they were parallel to the direction of flight, to create minimum drag and increase gliding distance, thus slowing down the plane as much as possible before touchdown. It is a standard emergency procedure to feather the props like that: the angle of the feathered props also stops the spinning and therefore no thrust is gained.

Best emergency landing ever.
