    Plane In Trouble Near LA

    Updated: 15:27, Thursday February 15, 2007

    A plane apparently in trouble near Los Angeles has landed safely.

    It spent some time circling in the air after its landing gear became stuck.

    — A good result…

    Cheers

    Thank you for your reply Paul F,

    I will take your advise and ask at checkin… if all goes to plan with the traffic we should get to the airport for about 4 hours before we fly… (we are about 140 miles away, as you know what our UK motorways can be like!!

    “”””The FBI said the stowaway had died in the wheel well, although autopsy results are not expected until later in the week.

    The dead man has not been identified, but an investigator said he was carrying South African papers.

    The plane had made trips to Hong Kong, Singapore, Cape Town in South Africa and Vancouver before arriving at Heathrow on Sunday.
    Information Site Map “””

    Yes i know he was found at LAX… What i meant was that it does not state if he was killed at LAX so how…. (but thinking about it, its impossible as he was in the wheel well rather than ran over or due to any other moving parts while taxi’ing in the wheel well…

    But if he had come from South Aficra…. how come the other pre-flight checks missed him??

    Cheers

    Very Sad news…

    I have a few questions………

    his he a stowaway trying to get out of the US?
    (its states they think he died in the wheel well rather than due to extreme cold etc?? (but that could be a cover up?)

    If he is a stowaway from the US, how is the Securtiy at LAX?? coffee break??

    Could he of been a passenger of the flight or an other flight.. and some how didnt board and went for a walk?? (has it said he had “South Afican Papers” on him)

    The flight had been to south africa before leaving to go to LHR to LAX, could he of been there a while??

    I know this is guess work… and we will find out in due course… but the final thing comes down to security….
