Aircraft Lands with Right Main Gear Retracted at Tel Aviv-Ben Gurion (4X-ATK)

Incident Overview During an approach to Tel Aviv-Ben Gurion International Airport, an aircraft experienced a landing-gear malfunction in which the right main gear remained retracted in its wheel well. The flight crew notified air traffic control of the condition and elected to continue the approach. After the aircraft touched down, it slid for a few dozen metres before veering off the runway to the right and coming to rest. All 42 occupants escaped without injury, while the aircraft sustained damage beyond repair. ## Operational Response The crew’s decision to continue the approach after informing ATC allowed the aircraft to reach the runway, where it ultimately came to rest off the active surface. The incident resulted in no injuries among the occupants, but the aircraft was written off due to the extent of the damage.
