A Skywest Canadair CRJ-200 on behalf of Delta Airlines, registration N866AS performing flight OO-4443/DL-443 from Cincinnati Northern Kentucky,KY to Milwaukee,WI (USA) with 41 passengers and 3 crew, was on approach to Milwaukee’s runway 19R when the crew selected the landing gear down but did not receive a green indication for a main gear strut, cancelled the landing clearance and requested to enter a holding to trouble shoot the issue reporting they had fuel for 45 minutes. Re-cycling the gear didn’t succeed. The aircraft performed a low approach to runway 19R, the tower reported that the right main gear appears to be up and both left main gear and nose gear appeared down. The aircraft was subsequently cleared to land on runway 19R. After touch down about 40 minutes after the first go-around the tower reported no fire visible shortly followed by emergency services being right behind the aircraft. No injuries occurred.

I started OPShots in June 2006 as a place to share and display aviation photos without the often restrictive policies of other aviation websites. I want to share my love of aviation with fellow aviation geeks and provide a spotlight on Cleveland Hopkins International airport in the process.
