US Airways flight sinks into concrete while crew talks about Corvette - Mini 9 - 04-11-2010 If you're an internet know-it-all, I don't have to tell YOU about plane-stopping concrete. If you're like many of us, WHAT??? Sinkable/crushable concrete? http://jalopnik.com/5512930/transcript-pilots-talking-sports-cars-before-crash?skyline=true&s=i ![]() ![]() Re: US Airways flight sinks into concrete while crew talks about Corvette - Lux Interior - 04-11-2010 What? They can't just write their names in it, like the rest of us? Re: US Airways flight sinks into concrete while crew talks about Corvette - Mini 9 - 04-11-2010 Here is info on the CLIFF they would have fallen off of had they not been stopped by the concrete. (Or if they just did their f'n jobs!)

I'll probably be flying there in the future - unless I just always decide to fly to Pittsburgh & drive. Re: US Airways flight sinks into concrete while crew talks about Corvette - Mini 9 - 04-11-2010 clear day. no problem. rainy, windy, snowy NIGHT???? well, maybe I'll take a BUS Re: US Airways flight sinks into concrete while crew talks about Corvette - davester - 04-12-2010 So the important thing is...was this Corvette cool enough to warrant destroying a jetliner and endangering the lives of many people. We haven't gotten the final answer on that yet. |
