United 727 at Meigs.

Postby jford74 » Mon Aug 23, 2004 2:05 pm

"Meigs tower, United 2004 is type Boeing 727 declaring an emergency. We have lost all three engines. Request immediate vector to runway 36."

"United 2004, Meigs tower, make straight in, runway 36. All aircraft, clear the runway."
Image

Almost sheared the landing gear off missing a Cessna on the runway. I was yelling "Whoa." until we stopped.

I agree, you were at 13000 when you declared the emergency.  But I guess it is fine to land big planes at Meigs.  I may try with a 747...
