I am not an aeronautical engineer, nor a pilot, but that can’t be good.

Need that nose gear unless you’re landing a tail dragger. I hope everyone will be OK.

Southwest had a phenomenal 40 plus year, billions of miles; record of never injuring a passenger.

Yikes,

Even the Amish fly today. Thinking about becoming a Luddite freeman - fire by rubbing two sticks together.

We always fly Southwest when possible. They had a very good reputation among the military pilots

The assumption was, for various reasons, among them, that SW had many ex military fliers, that if somethingvwent wrong they could handle it better than anyone

Their record stands for itself

I dont think they were yet a corp when Rainman was frantically looking for a safe ride

Looks like the gear failed during taxi

Dunno

I can’t be the only one wondering how many meteorite worshippers comprise our nation’s aircraft mechanics and maintenance personnel?
