    Gear Up Emergency Landing at Republic

    Anybody spotting or monitoring when this happened this morning at about 8:45AM? Apparently Pilot of this Cessna couldn't extend landing gear. Pilot puts the ship on the center line, and makes a mad dash to get away from the aircraft.

    heard about it. looking for the N number.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
