Reminds me of a slogan the California Department of Vehicles had up on their office walls a few years back. “Steering is Not Enough!”

gear up landing, there are those that have and those that will and there is no one left so I’ve heard.
I’ve avoided it so far!

First thing you do in a gear up landing is put the gear down switch to the down position before the FAA shows up.

A lot of these wrong airport landings occur at night, when on a visual approach, at a nearby airport with same runway alignment. Pilot will see the rotating beacon of the wrong airport, think its the right airport, and fly to the wrong airport.
