One of the German Tornados which had deployed to Mazar-i-Sharif two weeks ago made a crash landing, aircrew unharmed. Official press speaker says, that the nosewheel was "ripped off" the aircraft while landing. Investigations are still going on, but the poor runway conditions may have taken their toll.

kind regards,

I hate the way journalists write and the wording they use... if the freekin' landing gear snapped and broke then it's not bloody damaged... why don't they use more correct worlds like snapped or broken or something. And all the avionics located under the nose are probbaly damaged (or maybe even lost because it was unreperable, but I doubt they would mention or even know that in such detail)

Yes, journalists can be stupid like that. (I have a real pet peev against them on TV and such)

 

I'm also glad to hear that no one was injured.

DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices
