@syd_spotting: Pilot refuses to lower nose gear after touchdown? This 747 incident is wild. See the drama unfold. #Aviation #Boeing747 #PilotLife #News #Scary
It's called dynamic breaking, where the pilot holds the nose gear up to help slow down

There’s no such thing as “dropping the nose gear.“ From your very first day learning to land, you are taught to hold the nose gear off until it gently stalls on its own because it is a very sensitive part of the airplane and needs to go down softly.

Pilots never drop the nose gear, it drops when the plane slows down.

Nose was probably up longer than usual because he’d didn’t get a locked light on the nose gear.

“Nose gear” refers to the front wheels. It’s down before the rear wheels touch down. So I’m a bit confused here.

It helps to slow the aircraft upon landing.

its like a aerodynamic break, it slows down fast and its used on short runways
