Cargojet gear collapse?

Post by .300 Weatherby Mag »

Rumour floating around that Cargojet had a gear failure this morning. Any truth to it? Crew OK?

Zut Alors! C'est dommage!
CME320, un Beech 1900C exploité par Prince Edward Air, effectuait un vol cargo selon les règles de vol aux instruments (IFR) depuis Moncton (CYQM) à destination de Mirabel (CYMX) avec deux membres d'équipage à bord. Suite à une indication de train d'atterrissage "in transit", l'équipage a décidé de venir atterrir à Montréal/Trudeau (CYUL). En courte finale, l'équipage a fermé les moteurs. En présence du Service d'intervention d'urgence (SIU), l'appareil a atterri sur la piste 06 droite. Lors de l'atterrissage, le train avant s'est affaissé, causant des dommages au fuselage avant, aux hélices ainsi qu'aux ailes. L'aéronef a été évacué sur la piste. Aucun des membres d'équipage n'a été blessé. La piste 06 droite a été fermée de 0326Z à 1000Z. La piste 06 gauche a été utilisée entre temps. En raison de cet accident, quatre aéronefs n'ont pu sorti de la zone de l'aviation générale.

Understand that it may now be a write off as a result of a further mishap during the recovery efforts.

Regarding small penguin's Dorval (Pierre Elliott Trudeau Intl) GA comment, as the flight was a scheduled cargo flight, CME320 does not fall into the GA category.

Heard through the grape vine today that the plane was damaged due to the gear pins not being in place. When the plane was hoisted up and the nose gear brought down enough pressure came out of the hydraulic system to allow the mains to colapse. Oops.

When are people going to learn that when your king air/99/1900/whatever has gear problems you've gotta pin the gear before you do something stupid?

I'm pretty sure he got that part. The CADOR report likely led to confusion:
. En raison de cet accident, quatre aéronefs n'ont pu sorti de la zone de l'aviation générale.

no sig because apparently quoting people in context is offensive to them.
