Air Canada could have used your 'flying skills' early Sunday morning when a passenger plant touched down about 1100 feet short on the main Halifax runway. It hit a power pole and an antenna array tearing off under carriage and the engines..plus the nose.
This was during a 'howling snowstorm' but I bet your Radio Shack controller could have saved the day.


Remind me never to fly into Halifax NS. Is that a controlled airport?

You silly little fart!
Not that long ago on Sept 11 2001 thousands of 'mericans were delighted to land at Halifax and other friendly airports when your George W shut them out of 'merican airspace...even when they didn't have the fuel to turn back to Europe.

This story is just one of the tiny little side stories that happened on
Sept 11. Good thing there weren't snow flurries in Halitosis NS that day.
