Boeing 747-400 (N709CK)
Connie 247 Heavy departs runway 27 for Anchorage (ANC).
Comments
Still the Queen of the Skies as far as I'm concerned. Great shot, beautiful light.
Showing another Kalitta 747 that hasn't been run off the end of a runway and destroyed after the pilot heard a "noise"!
@Robert Mills Jr., For all the hard work Kallita has been doing for the U.S., that's not a very nice thing to say at this time! I'm not a fan of them but they brought a close family friend of mine home from Afgan. and I thank them for the respect they showed, unloading his casket & their condolence to the family!
@Robert Mills Jr, That's really what you have to say? Wow.
So what would we have to say about a pilot who heard a noise he or she did not normally hear and ignored it? Damned if you do damned if you don't. NEVER criticize a pilot for pulling the plug when there is no time to trouble shoot comprehensively and still time to abort with at least some semblance of safety if not survivability.
Admittedly I am not familiar with the incident Mills Jr. is referring to, but as a longtime private pilot and longtime critical care paramedic I definitely know a thing or two about having to make critical decisions very rapidly.
