Supre Hornet blows tire and skids off runway
You're right. Maybe they can clean it up with soap and water. I'll try and
find out what happens. Seems there are no air bags around so they have to sling lift this aircraft. I wonder how much the paperwork will weigh by time they finish the investigation, the repairs, etc, Tom "Alan" wrote in message ... Zowie! Got her all cleaned up to display at the show and the boys end up backin' 'er thru the mud! Looks like the stbd stabilator took a little stress in the wrong way, just doesn't look like it's hangin' right. "Tom Callahan" wrote in message ... Landing after a perfect series of maneuvers during the airshow, this Super Hornet blew the port tire. I was in line at the porta potty and heard the explosion. By time I got back to the flight line the aircrew was exiting the aircraft and the firetrucks were on the scene. The runway was then closed for the rest of the airshow. Seems Pensacola doesn't have the equipment to lift and repair a Super Hornet. |
