Holy bat droppings, someone regularly flew a 747 into Guatemala City? Yipes, I'll never forget that landing in a 727 in 1966. Flying up a ravine watching the ground rise FAST and more and more and more flaps kept coming out of the wing. Probably had to use 90 degrees of flap to land a 747 there. Did for a 727, all three sections out of the wing. Pretty impressive for early 1960's engineering!
That runway is 6700 ft above sea level I think, higher than Denver. And short. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
