CO a/c in the dirt in ELP?

[EatinRamen]

My folks just landed in ELP coming from ATL and they called and said there was a Continental airplane off one of the runways in the dirt. They said the police and ambulance was there too. Couldn't tell me which runway since they're not familiar with aviation like we are. Anyone have any info?

Reports are no injuries, probably no big deal.

Check out the cool graphic, though.

:laugh: Haha, yeah, KFOX really went above and beyond with their reporting on this one. At least it wasn't sporting the headline "Continental 737 Crashes at El Paso Int'l", I'll give them credit for that.
