Part 6/9:
With landing imminent, the pilots faced a nightmare scenario of potentially landing without an operational nose gear. They made the difficult decision to attempt a go-around. With only one engine operational, the captain manipulated the plane back into the air, attempting to buy time and resolve their precarious situation.
As they prepared for another attempt at landing, onboard tensions grew palpable. Emergency services stood ready on the ground as the first officer discovered they could manually deploy the landing gear. Though the landing gear indicator lights had failed, an affirmative report from air traffic control confirmed that they were indeed down.
