  • I suppose you're right; with no gear down it was the world's record for the lowest landing altitude. However it's not the lowest crash landing. There was an incident where a military aircraft crashed into the dead-sea, which is few feet lower.

  • The pilot couldn't put the gear down or did he forget to?

  • I beleive he went around raising the gear, got used to the alert sound and then on 2nd final hasn't checked the wheels again. The plane is fully recovered and looks like new now. I suppose the engine is now new as well.

  • Where about did this accident happen?

  • Dead Sea Israel (afaik it's the lowest altitude you can fly in the world as it's officially the lowest place on earth)

  • So - they screwed up the landing and decided to further wreck the airframe lifting it up improperly. Look at the buckling in the fuselage forward of the bulkhead. Poor Mooney.

  • @ErezMiller

    Lowest place on earth excluding oceanic depths :P

  • poor mooney

  • no guys that is the wrong way to get it back into the air hahahahaha!

  • How could a pilot raise the gear then forget to put it back down again? Is it that difficult to check to see if it's down?

  • Speed brakes, I mean?

  • What happened - were the air brakes on?

  • @ErezMiller Well then I guess this guy is now the new record holder for lowest landing altitude
