Default Netjets gear up landing (my uncle)

I'm sure many of you saw this/heard it. I thought it would be interesting to share.

Used the search function didn't find anything like this

My uncle flies for netjets. He is currently in the G200. He spent around 6 years in the Citation Excel and moved up to the G200.

This happened last year in may . (took the NTSB 7 months to clear the incident) Aircraft was cleared to land at HPN - White Plains, NY - when the gear failed to deploy. G200 circled, did a flyby the tower to confirm one gear was hanging out -so he climbed to 2000 feet and circled the area. and diverted to Stewart Intl in Newburgh.


Private plane makes emergency landing at Stewart - YNN, Your News Now


VERY cool to have an uncle go through an emergency and put the aircraft on the center line.
