first things first: love2fly, you have some serious issues and if you care to address them in person, im all for it.. it would be a bad decision for you and over really quick

secondly, in regards to the hawker... like most retractables, the gear is hydraulically actuated and a crash like this has the potential to screw up that system. secondly, the dual nosewheel's steering system is also on the hydraulic system. judging by the force of the crash, there is a high probability of damage to that system. my guess is that it is not smart to land an airplane with no steering

for further inquiries, go to flightsafety.com, sign yourself up for a course, and you can ask your instructor.. my suggestion is to ask Kevin at FSI in Wilmington, DE
