A
737 charter jet filled with NASCAR drivers, crew and media members slipped off
the runway while taxiing for takeoff at Concord (NC) Regional Airport today,
becoming stuck in the mud and delaying its departure for Dover International
Speedway.
NASCAR
Sprint Cup Series drivers Paul Menard, Casey Mears, Travis Kvapil, David
Stremme and Scott Speed were all on the airplane when it strayed off the runway
at slow speed, no injuries were reported. The passengers deplaned without
incident, and were transferred to another aircraft.

Was pilot drunk?
ReplyDeleteIf the pilots can't follow the painted lines on the taxiway, I'm not sure I'd want them to fly the plane.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the 737 had a jack bolt back off?
ReplyDeletePlane looks to be handling a little loose. Needs an air pressure adjustment.
ReplyDeleteStart and Park!
ReplyDeletePerfect example of why not to text and fly...
ReplyDeleteit's not going to pass post race inspection - dock him 6 pilot points, 6 owner/charter points - must give back the frequent flyer miles!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNASCAR needs to start using Jack's 727's.
