Good effort !
I initially thought they may have landed long and had to hammer the breaks so hard the temps went through the roof and the fuse plugs let go - but I'm not seeing glowing/smoking brakes discs in that shot, so must have been quite an arrival !
Cheers

My money is on a hard landing, seeing as all of the tyres blew. :think:

Good thing it was at Leeds Bradford, if it had been Liverpool the picture would have shown the plane up on bricks! :think:

I reckon a buggered up checklist and landing with the parking brake on.

How many times in that footage did he put a Murray Walker-esque curse upon himself?

Can anyone explain why the FIREMAN is working the jack? I seem to remember the mechanics getting kinda protective of their jets when the fire department showed up at Denver...
Wait...I've got it -
He's the only one of the bunch standing around the gear who knows how to read instructions and follow directions. The rest are just the pilots and airline officials who wouldn't dare get their hands dirty or take directions from a mechanic....
