Quite old now but still a cracking video all the same!

I was on shift when it happened. Was just walking over to a Fokker 50 when I saw it on approach so stood on the edge of the ramp watching. Was quite a sight!

Funny you should post that today - EASA have just published an Emergency AD on 146/RJ Nose Gears following this mishap.

Looks like there was no issue with the NLG on that aircraft though - at least before it landed :D

Cheers
