What's with that place?
Flame away...
1. that is not true. he was actually talking to maint. control, they had him do a visual inspection, and then told him to go ahead and taxi to the gate.
2. never heard about the LSE thing.. doesn't mean it didn't happen but you think there would have been a bigger deal made, and an ntsb report.
3. probably the same thing that is wrong with fed ex crashing in mem all the time and slowing down the operations at the airport,, i have been here almost 2 years and have seen 2 fed ex planes close the runways...must be the low time fo's???
ps,, you gotta watch the side loads on those md 11... apparently they cant handle it!!
