    Misrepresentation= Over/Under Sorry about my translation not being verbatim to yours.. Maybe because of the fact that Mooney used Johnson bar gear on some of the pre-J models, a good portion of the fleet are Johnson bar aircraft. Its a lot harder to forget to "swing" your gear with the massive arm than a small switch on the panel. Maybe Mooney pilots are just better pilots than most .

    Take notice to the fact that he made it clear that he pulled data from the NTSB, since 2010. He made it clear that all gear up landings are not reported so there is some percent error in those numbers anyways. @DVA, I agree with you the numbers do seem reasonable for the 80 over a 7 year period, Mooneys are no 177 but they do have gear ups often, so @TheTurtle do you really think that Mooneys were misrepresented here. I feel like the numbers are reasonable.

    Interesting to hear, maybe they will not ground the whole fleet.. However there could be an effective date/time. Have you seen or heard anything today? I'm going to give the story another look.

    The news just broke that Fat Albert (The U.S Navy Blue Angels C130) will not be performing at EAA Air ventures Oshkosh this year due to a nation wide grounding of the aircraft. Does anyone have insight on this issue? I assume this has something to do with the accident a few weeks ago that left many dead.

    But as soon as the aircraft failed to accelerate or climb past FL240, what was the flight crew thinking? This was a brand new NEO aircraft, there should have been a red flag to the flight crew as soon as the aircraft failed to meet it's performance specifications. This was a big duh moment for the crew of this airliner... This also shows poor CRM on behalf of the crew and the airline, the flight crew did not run the checklist or they did not back one another on the checklist whilst performing their respective duties as the captain/FO... (Actual airbus A320 checklist)
