I'm not doubting you Art, its just that I have seen the odd pic of

bombers
where the u/c had collapsed or hadn't come down (or whatever!), they'd
lifted it by crane later, and lowered it onto a pair of small bogies to

take
it away, course as you say, she ma


Yeah but you got an entire group coming back from a mission and this one

ship
has the only runway closed. Wait for a slow lumbering crane to come out

while
planes in the air run out of fuel? I don't think so. The bulldozers will

have
that wreck out in the dirt at the speed of light.
