Hi to all. I am from Rome, Italy, Europe and i have never been fan of my country and/or my continent. I never said "Airbus rules" or "Airbus is better than Boeing". In my opinion these speeches are a nonsense because each airplane has its own features and each manufacturer builds ultra technological pieces of art that nobody should treet them with stadium cheering.Even liking Airbus A320ceo and A320neo families so much, when looking at B737 MAX8 for the first time i thought it was so beautiful to being more similar to a spaceship than to an airplane. I even think that Ryanair is lucky to have Boeing B737-800s in its fleet because the Airbus A320 should not resist to all the "hard landings" of its pilots...just joking (and, Leo, don't get nervous because of Boeing B and Airbus A!:ROFLMAO:
But three episodes should warn Boeing and the landing gears of the B737NG and B737 MAX so i wonder if something is happening at Boeing.
What do you think?

1) the landing gear of a TUIfly belgium B737-700 collapsed when parked at Brussels Airport

2) a nose landing gear of a TUI Airways B737-800 suddenly turned perpendicular during takeoff run at Manchester Airport

3) an American Airlines B737 MAX8 has been evacuated at Denver Airport after landing gear wheel catched fire during takeoff

Indeed strange!

I can also remember the landing gear collapses of the Dash 8-Q400... SAS had quite a few and ended up retiring the type, if I remember well!

Yes, two in September 2007 and one in October 2007, all the three incidents involving SAS Dash 8-400. No injuries among passengers, but then SAS retired the model from its fleet.
