Obviously a bit more of this 'tail' to come. - Mon Apr 08, 2024 8:46 am

Re: FOD Plod Needed at Denver
You are not seriously expecting pilots to bend down and look under the engines, are you? They might get dizzy or lose their balance or spill their take-away coffee - and it might be raining.........Woody wrote:PP this is one of the reasons why you should always carry out your checks

What on earth happened here? South West at LGA
