check your freck'en hyd hoses !!!!!!

[big al 08]

nose gear hyd hose sprouted an pin hole and with 1,000's of psi pumps out all the fluid in a short period of time! so the bitch was bellied in. with engines off, glided in in. nose gear went forward with high angle of attck and locked. no belly damage all bottom antennas ok. had removed the clam doors with a mod so only the small long doors acted as skis and my traing wheels (the boom lower fiberglass fairings ground down to the bottom of the rear tail light. minor windmilling damage on the back prop. settled down around 55mph.
