Re: Aerosucre B-727 crash
It seems that YouTube is full of videos of these folks operating from shorter places and places with terrain...
Makes me speculate that maybe they were very used to these operations and that some small thing went wrong... power problem, a little extra weight...
Oh for TOPMS or V-3BS

Re: Aerosucre B-727 crash
It appears, there, that they busted off a flap... too bad they couldn't 'just circle a while and retract them'. However, the PSA 182 plane didn't hold altitude either.

No More F-4
In the 1960's in suburb-Flyover, we enjoyed the occasional sonic boom, and a couple of cowboy improvised low passes. http://worldwarwings.com/heartbreaking-farewell-final-flight-f-4-phantom/?a=mr&var=finale+flight+of+the+phantom-ww2&utm_campaign=finale+flight+of+the+phantom&utm_source=fa...

I've always liked this song and found this fence-perv youtube entry a while back. The photography has the roughness we've established in this thread, also the harsh reality that makes all these pictures so good!

Hm. First of all, I feel honored that a man who is longer here than me sits down and takes a few minutes to write a very detailed answer, compared to AA 1818. Thank You.
