What would you do if front gear deployed but rear gear didn’t?
1)If the aircraft has enough fuel we will send it to the closet(allied) airfield possible. 2)If the pilot is within reach of a tanker bridge they would go up to the tanker top off and head to an airfield with their Wingmen. 3) If we are in blue water ops, we would use the stools with the front wheel and nose down on the deck end and almost no fuel in the tanks (When I was in were trained for both. 4)Ditch the aircraft in the drink, but that requires an ejection and allot pilots hate that because it could limit their career options, ticks off the CO of the Airwing and Ship as the NAVY tends to send out a bunch of angry Officers to ask a bunch of stupid questions and a whole of paper work as well.
