Medal Winners: Air Traffic Control Tapes
I wonder if these events caused by malfunction or pilot's failure to follow checklist.
Certainly pilot failure. A mechnical issue would be caught by the pilot 99% of the time by the pilot when he noticed a gear unsafe light. There are some very rare cases of gear not being down but indicating down but that's not common. Its more likely a busy pilot not noticing. I've heard tower call out gear up to pilots before. Usualy the pilots are thankful but sometimes they are irritated. -Robert
