Boulund Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) Read about this in the news this morning. Does anyone know anything else, have any more information/pictures/videos etc? I'd love to know what is said in the youtube video I found (probably Polish?) Great work by the pilot(s) handling the situation and great work by emergency personnel taking care of the small fire that breaks out after landing! Everyone was safe! xV2oSpVyAEg edit: Should mention I saw Topol-m's post (http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1316911&postcount=1041) in the Military and aviation news-thread but thought it could have an entire topic of it's own.

LARGE Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I heard it was a major hydraulic failure which made impossible to pull out the gear. My friend flew the same destination (NY - Varshava) few weeks earlier. Its probably has been the same plane. Does anybody knows is there any other planes then 767 flying this destination and how many are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BladeLWS Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 There's alternate gear extension and you can also unlock the gear and allow a gravity drop. There must of been a pretty serious problem if you can't bring the gear down, but they did have flaps and spoilers so some part of the hydraulics was working.
