7660 ZK-XSA was on its wheels parked in the sunshine and looking undamaged at Tauranga on the 8th April  |

Well if it wasn't 7660 there are plenty of other ex SAAF Harvards flying round the world. Don? Any answers? Marty thinks it was overseas and not in NZ. The photo was on Marty's Facebook page. |

Bet there was a whole lotta swearing going on in the cockpit. Surely the blaring undercarriage horn that goes off when you close the throttle with the gear up would have been a clue/ Unless he landed with a bit of power on? Or the horn is disconnected?

There's a video somewhere on Youtube of a Cessna RG landing with the wheels up - the warning horn is clearly audible throughout the entire approach. Amazing how that sort of thing can be completely missed by multiple occupants when some other distraction is present!
