Just checked and in April 2012 she had another unfortunate accident at Bournemouth airport.
Again the pilot had done fly-by gear check, which was OK.
He landed safely and then inadvertently moved the landing gear lever, which he had taken for the flap lever found on other a/c which he flew.
The left and nose wheels retracted and it just dropped onto the runway at around 15 knots.

As the gear should not be capable of retracting under load then maybe there is an ongoing problem part of which had just popped up again.... ?

Perhaps Foxy Lady should retire before she gets seriously hurt.
