oldfe Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 We had a hanger queen assigned to our crew she had been canabalized for several months this was 66 or 67, after putting her back together and a test flight she was released and our crew had her for next day missions. we made about 7 flights and returned to natrang, we used the short runway as someone had managed to crash a bird dog on the main runway. Started the flaps down they went assymetrical at 15 degrees, loadmaster called said hyd fluid all over cargo comp.Pilot was Don leightola Zimmerman copilot I was FE.on touch down no hyd went to emergency then on reversing #2 flamed out #3 hung in flight idle, we stoped about 50 ft from the brick wall, very interesting day.
