On September 28, 2010, at 1710 central daylight time, a Bombardier CRJ-200, operated as Skywest
Airlines flight 3074, landed with the left main landing gear retracted on runway 7R at General
Mitchell Airport (MKE), Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The flight departed Omaha, Nebraska, at an unknown
time, and was destined for MKE. There were 39 reported souls on board and no injuries reported.
All airplane occupants evacuated the airplane via the main cabin door with no injuries reported
during the evacuation.
According to local officials, air traffic, and the FAA, at 1659, the crew reported a gear indicator
problem and performed a pass for air traffic control tower observation. The tower observed the
left main landing gear in the retracted position. After some unknown troubleshooting, the crew
landed the airplane with the left main landing gear retracted.
Preliminary damage assessment by on-site FAA inspectors revealed minor damage to the left wing tip,
flap assemblies, and flap pylon assemblies. The left main landing gear door was up and locked, and
the left main gear was in the wheel well.
