In this exercise at Santa Monica, the DART volunteers simulated an earthquake that has closed the 405 and 10 Freeways, and the Pacific Coast Highway. In the scenario, SMO’s runway could be damaged, but still usable. Together, the 10 planes involved in the scenario could carry over 2,000 pounds of supplies into SMO, and if needed, could fly five missions per day, getting critical supplies to Red Cross volunteers on the ground, as well as the hospitals they serve. WOW, a whole FIVE missions in some cock-a-mammy scenario where the runway survives but the freeways are closed. Note that LAX, the big airport, could handle FIVE, FIFTY or FIVE Hundred flights under this ditzy scheme. |
