Panaji (Goa) [India], Dec 17 (ANI): Surat-Goa SpiceJet flight SG-3568 on Tuesday made a "precautionary" landing here after the pilot suspected that the Nose Landing Gear was not fully down and locked.
However, on landing, the Nose Gear was found to be down and locked.
"On December 17, 2019, SpiceJet Q400 aircraft was operating flight SG-3568 (Surat - Goa). During the approach, when the landing gear was selected to down position, the Nose Landing Gear Door amber light remained on. Hence, the pilot carried out a precautionary 'go around'.

"As per the 'Standard Operating Procedure' all emergency services were activated and the Pilot executed a Precautionary Landing. On landing, the Nose Gear was found to be down and locked. The Landing was normal and safe," he said. (ANI)
