Default Airplane Taxies Into Car: Video Footage


"Orval Fairbairn" wrote

Question is, "Why in hell was a car parked on the taxiway? What airshow
allowed it?


In Hickory, NC, when there is an airshow, the crosswind (shorter) runway is
closed, and part used for aircraft parking, and part for car parking. That
beats parking on a taxiway, I guess!

A better question is why there were no wing walker/scooter riders watching
out where he was going, in a congested area like an air show?

It is still a shame, though. At least the damage does not look to be too
catastrophic.
