Emirates Landing Gear Disagreement Prompts Go-Arounds
The Emirates Boeing 777-200 freighter, registered A6-EFO, was approaching runway 06 at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol when the crew reported a disagreement involving the left main landing gear.
The crew initiated a go-around at approximately 1,300 feet above ground level (AGL), discontinuing the initial landing approach.
The aircraft subsequently repositioned for another approach to runway 36C. The crew completed the landing approximately 25 minutes after the go-around, and the aircraft landed without further incident.
Following the landing, the aircraft stopped clear of the runway and was towed to the apron. The reported sequence confirms that the aircraft did not continue directly to its parking position under its own power after landing.
The incident account published by The Aviation Herald identified the left main landing gear disagreement as the reason for the go-around.
However, the available report did not establish the precise technical cause of the disagreement or provide further details about the aircraft’s landing gear condition.
Aircraft Remains on Ground After Landing
The report noted that A6-EFO was still on the ground at Amsterdam approximately 33 hours after landing.
It did not provide further information about the aircraft’s maintenance status or when it would return to service.
The reported ground time describes the aircraft’s status at that observation point. No additional technical findings or subsequent operational updates are included in the available incident account.
