Remark

Photographer

D-ABZB (cn 23348/625) That 747 was scheduled for Anchorage. Due to the non-retracted nose landing gear, the pilots were forced to return to Frankfurt. In a assigned airspace over Giessen, the crew dumped fuel to reach the maximum landing weight. Sorry for the low quality of the photo.
