BRYAN (Continued from Page 1) landing gear trouble over Love Field in Dallas Saturday. “The gear wouldn’t go up or down, but jammed in a fourty- five degree angle, said Butler. I thought we were going to have to pancake with gear up.” “Hon, I guess I’m going to have to give you a few lessons in fly ing,” said Butler, when he real ized that his landing gear wouldn’t go down. Although Donna had never flown before, she held the con trols of the plane for an hour and 15 minutes, circling Dallas’ Love Field while her father strug gled to get the jammed gear down. She had to fly the plane from the back seat while her father crawl ed under the front seat to work on the linkage. “I don’t believe I could have gotten the plane down without her, but she seems to think the whole episode was pretty funny,” com mented Butler.
