Our twice-weekly “Connie 207” goes to Amsterdam and therefore doesn’t use too much of the runway, but today’s extra flight went to Newark, New Jersey. “Connie 239” seemed to be pushing his luck with the runway length just a bit, presumably due to the heavier than normal fuel load!!! 😮 He was rather close as he passed over my head!!! 😎

Yep,on the M1 embankment,although some people did get killed in this tragic accident,it was a miracle that it didnt happen at rush hour,otherwise many more people could of been hurt/killed

Is that the same airport where the BMI 734 crashed just short of the airport after shutting down the wrong engine some years back????????
