Probably another maintenance issue with an older aircraft that had been sitting idle due to COVID. Omni has had 11 incidents in the last 6 years on 767's and one 777, including 2 tailstrikes, brakes, engine, flight controls, smoke in the cockpit, etc., Did the crew contact ATC about a landing gear fault indication prior to landing? If not, am curious as to why someone would be recording what should have been an routine landing.
