[QUOTE="cboss, post: 3984117, member: 51916"] I remember back in 2008, my unit was flying from the Seattle area to Maine to spend the night before we hopped the pond and just after takeoff, the flight engineers start running back and forth through the tube, pulling up floor panels. Turns out, they didn't know if our landing gears were up and locked. So we took a few passes by the tower to get visual inspection and were ordered to burn off some fuel and come back and land. They told us to prepare for a rough landing since they weren't positive our front gear would withstand the landing. After about an hour in a holding pattern, some E-2 sitting behind me says "I wonder what all those firetrucks are for?". I said, "Us, you idiot!". Everything went fine, problem was an indicator light malfunction. [/QUOTE]
