This is a short compilation of a few photos and videos on board Croatia Airlines flight OU 4467 from Zurich, Switzerland to Dubrovnik, Croatia. The aircraft was a turboprop Bombardier Dash 8 and in this type of aircraft, the landing gear can be seen from the cabin window itself. Watch as the propeller starts turning, the beautiful take off from Zurich and the retraction of the landing gear folding upwards into the engine nacelle. The coastline was very pretty as we came in for our approach. We flew right above Dubrovnik city, and you can clearly see the walls enclosing the Old Town. Shortly after that the landing gear is lowered and the flaps are extended to reduce speed. And finally you can also see the touchdown, as the wheel hits the runway surface and smokes while we brake and slow down. It was a very nice flight and a nice new experience. In India, Spicejet operates these aircraft on regional flights.
