Continental flight lands in Carlyss by mistake Wednesday night Plane bound from Houston to Lake Charles landed at Southland Field By Brian Trahan, Executive Editor Southwest Daily News Posted Sep 08, 2011 @ 09:36 AM CARLYSS — When Southland Field built it's new state of the art T-Hangar here this past summer, it wanted to attract larger planes to the airport. Officials never envisioned having a Continental Connection plane land here though. Some time after 8 p.m. Wednesday, a Continental Connection flight bound from Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport to Lake Charles Regional Airport mistakenly landed at the much smaller Southland Field — a freak occurrence that has happened at least two other times in the last 20 years. According to Sam Larsh, Southland Field Airport Manager, it happened twice in the mid 1990s. |
haha to the DOH guys, look like it has happened then and now!

FlightAware > Continental Air Lines (United) (CO) #3222 > 03-Sep-2011 > KIAH-KLCH Flight Tracker it appears the plane departed the newly installed runway 2 at IAH and landed somewhere short of Beaumont. |

That seems to be a FlightAware glitch. If you look at this one

At his next interview.....
So, tell me about a time a decision you made that was a failure. |
HAHA, seems like an easy mistake, esp if you did it a bunch of times without that airport being all lit up, then one night it suddenly was.
