Anyone see the news clip from Australian Air Force belly landing an Aardvark?
News clip I just saw mentioned a wheel falling off. Video showed a nice smooth belly landing with the crew exiting and running away after it stopped.
Looked like a good job by the crew!
Made for a real nice spark & flame show!

SCHWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

Great coverage, they must have had about a half dozen cameras around the place. I do hate seeing a beauty of an old war bird like that having problems.

Thanks HogSnort, you Rock!
