No one was injured, aparently
. Not_in AvieHeraldie yet. There's a
video from the interior that stops shortly after a "thud" is heard and a
very crappy picture showing damage to the leading edge between the fuselage and the left engine (and maybe some damage to the engine nacelle).

Talk about "see and avoid" not working...
But [i]we[/i] shouldn't forget Boeing executives, stupid pilots and Verbie.

sensible action of
ordering a worlwide, immediate, permanent
grounding of the
737Max as soon as he
took office this
NTAD!!!!! would
Not_have

Do you think that the Gol 737 was told to keep visual separation with the truck and cross behind it, but the pilots instead attempted to cross 100 ft below the truck?

This being Brazil, someone will attempt to repair the truck.

And
then remove it from the runway, or the other way around?

Repair in situ. Obviously.
