Default Local News

I lived in the Bay Area when it happened and remember it on the news. It was a very windy day. The local stations at the time were KTVU (Chan 2), KPIX (Chan 5, CBS-affiliate), and KRON (Chan 4, NBC affiliate).

KTVU is part of FOX, now I believe, but as Cub posted, I would think all would have it in archive.

845 took off from 1R but used the data for 28L (they would have made it had they used the correct data). The approach lights for 19L suposedly have never been replaced. Two pax were injured when gear struts or approach lights came into the cabin (); one lost a leg or legs.

The Capt wanted to ditch in the Bay; the crew had to convince him they could land at the airport.
