Hei Ruben

Flott Bilde av flyvemaskinen som fikk ett kort liv etter dette bildet ble tatt. Som du sikkert vet havarerte dette 4/10-74 på Southend. Det som virker litt forunderlig er at Flight Engineer fikk skylda. Jeg har aldri fløyet DC-6, men jeg skal spørre kollegaer som har for å spørre hvor "Gear-Lever" står. F/E dro gearet opp da han hørte V1. Se hva som står her:

The flight engineer raised the gear on take-off, shortly after V1 had been called. The nosegear retracted, causing the DC-6 to subside on to its nose. The aircraft skidded down the runway and was evacuated. The aircraft was sold to Air Facilities following the mishap and scrapped.
PROBABLE CAUSE: It has not been possible to determine what led the Flight engineer to believe that the captain had ordered him to raise the landing gear.
