Landing Gear Failure - Live from Manchester Airport!
Well, I’m back off holiday - almost!
I’m currently writing this from the runway at Manchester Airport. Yes, on the plane. The problem is that we landed over an hour ago after a bumpy landing due to landing gear failure. The wheels went down, but the steering was b0rked and we needed to be towed.

We’re currently sat waiting for a replacement truck to tow us across the main runway - two hours after we landed.
