Glad our crew was ok......im sure we are gonna get an email now about landing gear extension speeds now

Still no official word from the company about anything... no PIF, email, or anything whatsoever. I wonder if anyone up there in toon-town (HQ at ATW) even knows this happened yet. Yes it is sarcasm, but they are so removed from day to day ops that my lame attempt at sarcastic humor applies.

So i saw it in the hangar yesterday....the managed to get the left main down. Someone brought this up. All female crew right?
What do you think the odds were that they couldnt lift the emergency gear extension?? I mean it requires what 40-50 lbs draw weight??? I just cant imagine the emergency extension not working especially since Hydraulic 2 helps force the gear down.
Mind you i didnt bring this up...another captain did...im not trying to sound sexist or anything.
