Has anyone heard anything about the GIV that had an electrical fire on its way into Park City Utah for the film festival?

Nope... Anyone else?

I am interested to hear more as well. Hope there is more news. I am sure everything is okay with all the liberal cameras out there already, this would be all over the News Networks already.

Uh, no airport at Park City. Closest would be Heber City. Or SLC

Uh, no airport at Park City.

Maybe that's what caused the fire.

It was in a Los Angeles paper called Variety. This is on their website:

Grazer gets fright flight
Things gets scary at Sundance

By MICHAEL FLEMING
Brian Grazer and Universal production execs were rattled after the G-4 jet they flew into Park City for the Sundance Film Festival caught fire five minutes before landing....

I'd sure like to know what happened.

My guess would be a F/A caught an oven mitt on fire in the galley or something "major" like that...

and these pansy hollywood self-important dikheads got all excited....

Nice talk, G200. Remember, those "dikheads" as you call them, pay someones salary.

The article said something about an electrical fire.

not my salary. (Clay Lacys maybe)

and yes -- DIKHEADS they are...

this is the reason all they can get is SOCAL garbage charter operators to fly thier erratic schedules and crazy demands....(KASE after dark, etc)

The only similar event I could find in the FAA database was a G2 which slid off the runway in Logan, UT.

Did anyone look under Provo, UT? KPVU? Sundance is 40 minutes away by car.

A friend of mine at AvJet just told me it was a GIV operated by Elite Aviation. They are a charter company in Van Nuys (I had sent them a resume a while ago). Sounds like it may have been a flight attendant thing. Heard it was pretty bad though...cabin filled with thick smoke just prior to landing. Scary.

Also, here is a quote off the web he sent me:

"While we were beginning our descent, we all smelled and could see smoke," Grazer said. "We strapped in and heard the pilot say there was a fire on the plane. Next thing we knew, the smoke was so dense we couldn't see anything in the rear compartment, except the crew racing with fire extinguishers to put out what they later said was an electrical fire. "All that to see 'Inside Deep Throat,' " said Grazer, whose docu preemed at the fest.

Turn the channel and get over it Oaky boy. BTW, it says it's a documentery, very educational, you should check one out.

And regardless of what your conservative morals dictate, no one deserves to have an unsafe flight.
