even if it wasnt locked I think it would have landed ok, the rest of the landing gear as well all other functions of the plane were a-ok.
the whole airbus is fly-by-wire, wonder what happened there
Ever see the video of the airbus that autolanded into the woods?

Found some really cool videos on this website. Some of the files are mp4 format, but can be opened with windows media player. Gotta check out the guy flying through the mountain! http://www.alexisparkinn.com/aviation_videos.htm#Videos
