If you watch the flap config.on the first attempt they were no where near the full flaps as in the second attempt,so i think there was another reason why he did this rather than forgetting to put the gear down,god knows why though

Great clear pro vid bye the way

Hey guys. I'll have to disagree with those who mentioned the "pilots with 1000 odd hours would never forget such a thing" etc etc.. that's ridiculous. They SHOULDN'T of course, and it's quite embarrassing and stupid for them to have been caught on film like this, BUT that aircraft was CLEARLY in a landing configuration, with landing lights, flaps, etc. The gear should have been part of the checklist LONG before he was near the airport. He probably caught a ground proximity warning and flipped!

Thank you. You are entitled to your viewpoint and I wouldn't disagree that the other video featuring the birdstrike is impressive indeed. However, I never claimed to compare my video to that one. You may also be quite familiar with go arounds from large aircraft without gear down and at low altitude - I'm not and that's what makes it dramatic to me.
