Title: Aviation Trivia - Nr.2
Post by Pinatubo on Jun 25^th, 2011 at 4:02pm

The pics below show some nose landing gear parts that belonged to an aircraft who made an emergency landing a few years ago.

Do you remember this accident?

If so, tell us some details about it.

And they don't call it a scare bus for no reason.

I know what flight this is and the aircraft but thats all i will say as its an easy one for me to guess :)

I think gandy answered the quiz.

It was a A320 landing in KLAX with a sideways nose gear.
