[Occam's Razor]

That'll buff right out...

Ok..you just made me spit coffee on my keyboard!

Tooooo funny!

Glad the crew is ok.

Some sources are reporting a #2 engine flameout..... assuming for the moment that that's true, I'd like to *respectfully* pose the question:

Why is a C-5 crashing with one engine down?

 

[ATR-DRIVR]

Especially after the news (fox) reported earlier that the C-5 can fly safely on only one!!!

And the inevitable quarterbacking begins.... How about everyone keep their traps shut and opinions to themselves until after we know what happened. Figures it's started by non-mil types.

Tail #0059 flown by a 326th ALS crew. My guess is multiple problems or multiple engs out. Best wishes to all invloved.

Kinda blows the entire idea of a discussion, dont it?

Just the usual hangar BS about who screwed the pooch.

You must think folks in FI have better things to do...c'mon, get with the program!

Inevitably people start thinking they know all the details in the first 24 hours, and it becomes a downward spiral. More often than not it turns into a questioning of the crews decisionsm and bashing them. Like death and taxes... it's a certainty.

They are reporting that the crew was a reserve crew. The reserve crews tend to be pretty sharp. They usually have a great deal of experience especially on the enlisted side of the house....

Glad to see everyone is going home safe tonight....
