Indian airline technician crushed by landing gear flaps

An Indian airline says a technician was killed when the flaps covering an aircraft's main landing gear accidentally closed on him during maintenance work. SpiceJet says the hydraulic doors "inadvertently" closed on the technician, who was working on a Bombardier Q400 aircraft at Kolkata's airport on Tuesday night. It said Wednesday that the doors were broken open in an attempt to rescue the worker, but he died. Police and the airline are investigating the incident.<br/>
