Ahh look, it’s now a decent aeroplane, a low wing. Death to all Cessna’s 😀

You’ve got a problem with high wings? I thought you flew a Dash 8?

What’s wrong with high-wing Cessnas?

Now you can learn to fly upside down without leaving the ground….

You know, it probably was a DC-8. 🙂

The flight school has plenty of large pictures of the pilot error hanging on its walls.

Hey WD:

Was that a UAL 707 – I thought they used to only have DC8’s ?

I may be wrong.

Years ago United landed a 707 at the nearby Ohio State University Airport rather than the Port Columbus Airport. They look similar from the air and are only seperated by a few miles so I guess to an unfamiliar pilot the mistake could be made. United had to strip the aircraft completely down and bring in a special crew to get the large 707 out of the much smaller airport. Oops. 🙂

THis has happened in Northern Ireland many a time actually!

There is Belfast International Airport which has runway 07/25 but also there is an airport called Langford Lodge (not used for even GA unless its a museum exhibit as this is the Northern Ireland Aviation Museum) which has runway 26/08.

Landford Lodge is also 1.5nm from EGAA and when 07 was in use in the 80’s (07 has no ILS and is a Visual Approach) a Carvelle (Spelling?) which mistook the runways.

It landed on the runway at LL which is alot shorter and they then realised what had happened. The BFS Twr saw the lights and was too late when they realised the mistake as there was no radar in tower so they couldnt look at a scope!

They had to take all the interior out and send it to Aldergrove to be refitted when it flew to their.

How was clearance given for the aircraft to land if it wasn’t scheduled to land at the wrong airport?
