337 Gear Up Landing

[Dale Campbell]

My personal though is, if you know the grass area is smooth with no ruts with good approach like a known smooth grass strip and maybe wet grass there would less damage to belly. There is another plane a 182Rg on that same site that did the gear up landing. the 182RG slide further and slide off runway to the left and all you could hear was metal being ground off. You could also hear the warning horn sounding in the background, but the pilot and co-pilot where to busy talking to notice gear horn sounding. We use to land a PA-11 Cub with floats, on morning wet grass, when it came winter, to remove floats. Dale
