Heard on the Marlborough grapevine Cessna 172RG Cutlass pilot has a very embarrassing moment.
About mid afternoon yesterday when he failed or forgot to lower the undercarriage when landing at Omaka.
anyone hear anything about this.

hay best pilot in the world no one said this. I said this statement! "collage does not lease this A/C out as private hire due to the insurance policies"

either it was on a training mish from the school or the owner had leased it to someone.

so if A185f is correct then must have been out of the collages hands.

One would imagine so given that gear up in a 172RG also equals prop strike. sad.gif
