So there we were coming into Ketchikan AK, in our Convair 580. Its maiden flight with us too. Granted she was an old bird which took a
bit in the way of repairs, but...we thought we had fixed her,.
Go to lower the landing gear and viola gear were jammed. Did what I could but to no avail I couldnt get them to lower. The weather wasnt
great and we tried to lower her down as gently as we could, but to no avail, 19 passengers gone, most injured...and the rating of Polar Air
Lines went from somewhere in the vicinity of 96% to 88%, Had to sell off two of our fleet to heal the pilot to a tune of $3.4 mill (yeah but
remember its x50 midifier lol), leaving us one other plane.
Going to be a long trip back to the comfort zone .
Man I love this program
