Any audio or video that 'good guy' Vincent can play at the Jetlag?
Might be a learning experience for those who haven't landed at the wrong airport.... |

As a side note, I thought the Dreamlifter was a 787 parts carrier. Why was it going into an AFB?

Oddly enough, if you look across the runway from the McConnell AFB ramp, you will see.....(wait for it).... Boeing- Wichita! Or their successor, anyway.
Back in the late 1980's we took our KC135's into Wichita to get their new engines (JT3D's off of American's retired 707's) and wings re-skinned, and those same 1950's airframes are still flying today, most of them were older than I was, and are still flying. |
Did they do an ocean crossing before this flight? It takes a tremendous lack of crosscheck and disregard of path/energy management to pull this off.

Sure.. The cues of an airport with a 12,000 runway are the same as a 6,001' runway, not to mention the aprons:rolleyes:. Sure anyone can make that mistake.:eek:
No breadsticks or cognac for the crew:(. |

I've always called it the "inbred-brother-in-law-training/management-club" :eek: Then there are the union negotiators (they frequently become brother-in-law club members later) that meet with Management at "Prayer Meetings" ... no kidding. Yep, they actually pray that they can agree to a contract with Management? YGTBFKM :confused: |
