Mine was forgetting to put the gear up on a shot for a screenshot contest.  IT was still a decent shot though.

IVe taxied into buildings in a 172, ended up in a small pond near TTS, etc.

You do realize that if you put down flaps a horn goes off and is really loud and annoying to remind you that your gear is up...

I flew from Chili to Antarctica in a An-124, landed way some place down there took pics, and took off. 1 hour latter I stalled from trying to slow down, and forgot that the elevation there was 2100ft and flew in to a big Ice cap.

And while trying to fly from the east cost to Spain in an XB-70 at Mach 3, I ran out of gas near Green Land, and could not glide any place.

Buying FSX  Tongue
Well...I had my computer muted and I was flying VC only and I took off and I forgot to take the landing gear in (747) went in for a landing and it was PERFECT...or at least, it would have been, when I took the landing gear OUT for landing I didn't know that it never went IN so I did a belly landing  Cheesy I was pretty mad....XD

I "landed out" in a glider a couple of times during the timed courses. I could have sworn i could stretch that glide to the next turn point... i sailed right though a thermal with good lifting action and thought "You better take advantage of this one and get a couple of thousand feet more" then the other side of me said "screw it... pitch for 110 knots and go for the gold! you only have a few minutes left!!!"
