Title: 757 - Houston we have a problem
Post by mfaulisi on Feb 20th, 2013 at 11:21pm
Took out the Freemium 757 with the new free AA texture for its  maiden flight and all was not well.  Right after take off I knew I had an issue, my left MLG was indicating green after retraction. I cycled the gear again and no dice.  I switched to external and noticed the strut was compacted and it was stuck.  I wish they had modeled emergency slides that would have been awesome.  This is start to finish after burning off some fuel and  "landing" when the gear failed.







Second flight went much smoother  ;)



Thanks for looking :)

Cool. I didn't know the JF 757 had realistic failures........maybe have to retry this one (I'm not usually a tube flyer). Great shots, Mfaulisi. The first one is stunning.....and the malfunctioning gear adds to the mood of the shot. Well done 8-)
