N TIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION MANNEDSPACECRAF CENTE Houston t, Texas 483-5111 70-18 January 29, 1970 Houston_ Texas---A NASA accident investigation board has found that the pilot failed to lower his landing gear in a landing mishap that occurred August 25_ 1969, at Ellington AFB. NASA Staff Pilot Edwin Q. Rainey was not hurt in the incident. The T-33 ,jet aircraft he was flying received damages totaling about $24,000_ but it was not repaired because of its reduced value. Rainey had completed a functional check flight with the aircraft and a series of four touch-and-go landings and was preparing to make a fifth landing to a full stop when the Ellington control tower warned that his landing gear was not down. Rainey advanced his throttle_ retracted his speed brakes_ and attempted to go around for another landing approach. However_ his air speed was too low and the aircraft contacted the runway before the engine could accelerate. The go-around was aborted and Rainey shut down the engine, bringing the aircraft to a stop on its belly and wing flaps. The investigating board_ headed by Astronaut Paul J. Weitz_ said a possible contributing cause of the accident was the pilot's preoccupation with aa up-coming precision landing coupled with a report from the Ellington tower of another aircraft in the vicinity which may have distracted the pilot and broken his normal habit pattern. -more-
70-18 Add 1 The board said_ however_ that final responsibility for the safe and proper operation of an aircraft rests with the pilot_ and it recommended that no changes be made in standard operating procedures or aircraft equipment.
