One of those days...
Posted: Mon Jun 28, 2004 12:22 amThis is actually part of the thread I have been posting, You'll see why I changed the title in the images below:
I have a picture of the Northwest Carrier behind me:
An uneventful takeoff...
And here, my troubles began.
A good landing?
Wrong. And if you look carefully in the previous image, most of the runway is behind me. I'm already trying to get back up at that point...
Any way, I even bounced here. Fortunately, there was no damage...
I think some golfer needs a new change of pants by now...
This was my second attempt. I came in a bit short of the runway. I would have made it if an errant gust of wind hadn't blown me (I think that's what happened anyway...)
Well, the third times the charm!
By the time I parked, they were waiting for me. I had to do a urine drop (though nobody thought I was really inebriated when they saw me walking). The director of the airport had the entire staff join in for a prayer of thanks for my landing.
I'm a very secular Christian, but in this case, I made an exception...
By the way, the first chapter is here.
The second chapter is here.
Chapter 3 is here
Chapter 4 is here.
Chapter 5 is here.
There are more images of this trip that I'll post later...
