Ouch. This also happened to a Nanchang at Hervey Bay back in 2006/07. The pilot pulled the undercarriage lever on roll out instead of the flap retraction lever!

Thanks Tornado, that is what I ment to say a Nanchang, my bad, the photo was taken from my hanger door by my hanger Mate, not sure what happened here (other than no U/C being used for landing ).

Last weekend a Jabiru j230 stacked it in on landing at Aldinga.

OCD I didn't hear that one, what happened ? Was it the engine that shit itself or the nose gear failed ( sorry I'm not a lover of Jab's, fix those two problems and make me smaller and I might change my mind ) !

I don't think landing down wind has anything to do with the aircraft.

With two windsocks and plenty of environmental clues I wouldn't have thought you Gould get this wrong ? Or was it by choice ? I've only got 36 hours in an early J160, it was my first aircraft after flying GA, very nice ride but just not what I was looking for.
