No problem MF - this was a development after I put up my few photos from Sainsbury's car park
- we were long gone home by the time this happened ...
My mate (and his wife and 8 month old baby) who were there were stuck stationary in the exiting traffic queue for 2 hours - apparently a child went missing (eventually found ok) and they were searching every car on exit ... Didn't get back to us till well after 6.30 pm
That's the video I was looking for because, from the photos I'd found, I was surprised that the wheels didn't deploy - now I can now see that the hydraulics were probably shot as the wheels seemed to come down only by gravity but were just dangling there and not locked ... He was
very lucky to get serviceable flaps though - that slowed him down a treat.
Excellent landing My mate (who is in 'the know') was telling me that that was a pretty new engine and they've been having trouble with it since it was installed ... they won't have any more trouble with it now
I will take this opportunity to just big up the Canberra display again ... it was
really excellent - and at full chat he set off all the car alarms in Sainsbury's .. the Hunter pair were also top notch .. none of them messed about and there was no pussyfooting - full on display from all of them.
