the media can suck it hardcore ... they always blow everything out of proportion ... there weren't even any pax on board ... What the F? they must have been running out of things to talk about

thank god no one was hurt.

Kudos to the crew getting it down and stopped without injury. Interestingly enough, right around this time last year another Air Wisconsin CRJ200 went off of an icy runway in Providence RI (PVD) and if I recall, it was the left main gear that collapsed. Obviously just a coincidence and two different situations of course....

Thank you for adding that in ... I forgot to include that in my post! I'm VERY glad that no one was injured!!

I'm glad to see nobody was hurt also. There was also a nose gear up landing by a Gulfstream Airlines Beech 1900 in DuBois earlier in the month also. Maybe PA just has bad chi this winter? I sure hope not.

Nice reporting...

The crew could not get the landing gear to "descend"? Actually, the landing gear descended when the plane descended.

Oh, it wouldn't "extend"? That's different.
