TX3RN0BILL 3 Posted June 9, 2010 Yeah I saw this this morning on the news... wow... well, good thing that it didn't wreck the plane much either, I hope it'll take not too much repair work and she'll be good to go... was surprised though as it looked like a good landing...

TX3RN0BILL 3 Posted June 11, 2010 Could be worse... Now all they gotta invent is those in Jumbo-size, and flying will finally be even safer for commercial flights! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
serverandenforcer 33 Posted June 12, 2010 Now all they gotta invent is those in Jumbo-size, and flying will finally be even safer for commercial flights! Or just multiples in jumbo sizes. Yeah, I could never figure why they never thought of installing those things on jet liners. Perhaps it's because the aircraft is going so fast, that either the cable for the shoot won't hold, or whatever is mounting the device that connects the cable to the aircraft would rip the airframe apart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
