On 6 February 2012, a Mid-Air Nightmare happened when Indian Air Force An-32 K-3060 came into land. The crew realizes that the left main wheel failed to descend.
Indian Air Force (IAF) Flight Lieutenant Gunadnya Kharche successfully landed an An-32 transport aircraft on a single landing wheel at the Sulur Air Force Base in Tamil Nadu after its left main wheel jammed.
In the video, a person can be heard saying that the doors of the left main wheel are only partially open and the wheels are unable to deploy.
Subsequently one can see the aircraft carrying out a slow approach and touching down on the runway on just the right wheel.
The Flight Lieutenant successfully managed to bring the aircraft to a stop even as it embarked on the left due to the missing wheel.
Flight Lieutenant Kharche was awarded a Shaurya Chakra in August 2012 for this stunning landing.
