Not that big of an emergency but entertaining to watch. Nice job too.
Must be a strange feeling sliding down the runway with that nose attitude.
Narrative:
A Piper PA-31-350 Navajo Chieftain was forced to make an emergency landing at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (XFE/KFXE), Florida, after the aircraft experienced a nose landing gear failure.
The plane departed for South Bimini Airport (BIM/MYBS) but encountered a problem, prompting the pilot to turn around and land at Fort Lauderdale, according to fire rescue officials.
