A Myanmar pilot safely landed a jet without front wheels after the landing gear failed todeploy. The Myanmar National Airlines plane skidded down the runway at Mandalay airport before grinding to a stop. The pilot of the Embraer 190 was praised for the landing, in which none of the 89 passengers was hurt. The captain circled the airport twice to allow air traffic controllers to determine if the landing gear was down, the airline said.
