A10-A Belly Landing

On 4 October, 1988, an A10-A from the 75th Fighter Squadron, 23rd Fighter Wing, England AFB, Louisiana had a 30mm shell misfire and jam the nose landing gear in the up and locked position. The pilot, Maj. Cal Hodnett, performed a text-book belly landing. This video is from the on-board gun/video camera, as well as video shot from/on the ground. Be forewarned the quality is poor, as my source tape is a 23-24 year old VHS copy of a tape I got from someone else. Гражда
