re: I'm gonna go with you on that one
Seeing as how this aircraft is supposed to break the sound barrier again at some unknown future date, I'd be going over its airframe and skin with every testing device known to mankind, looking for cracks and pits that shouldn't be there. Next flight the thing might just fly apart! Failed landing gear after a supersonic flight might indicate unexpected vibrations or buckling. Or just cheap parts not intended for that flight regime. Never know.
