Hoping it he sets it down softly!
AIRCRAFT EMERGENCY | Havasu Scanner Feed, LLC.
Engine 6 and a Battalion Chief are being dispatched at 8:26 AM to the 5600 block of Hwy 95 at the airport for an aircraft emergency.
There is an aircraft with locked landing gear. He is currently circling, ETA to the airport is 30 minutes.
Engine 6 advising it’s a KingAir twin engine turbo jet with a stuffed nose gear. 8 passengers onboard. Requesting additional engine and Desert Hills FD.
The aircraft will be circling the airport making some low level passes so that ground maintenance personnel can evaluate the situation.
Confirmed that the main landing gear is locked, but the nose gear is not. The aircraft has approximately 800 pounds of fuel. The pilots landing plan is to cut the power and killing the fuel as soon as the aircraft touches down.
AMR also has a flight crew in route and will be landing at the airport momentarily.
