   Seems that SAS are having a spot of trouble with their Dash-8s and have   
   grounded them all. Both have had gear problems, one last week had one of the   
   mains collapse on landing at Ålborg, engine caught fire but everyone got out   
   OK. Same thing happened last night in Vilnius. Co-incidentally, they nearly   
   dinged another one a few months back that had an engine failure and they   
   managed to forget to feather the prop.   
      
   So, what conclusion shall we leap to? Manufacturing? Maintenance procedure?   
   Pissed-up pilots hitting the landing gear switch with a whisky bottle?
