U.S. Air Force Capt. Christopher Sullivan said an access hatch fell off one of the bombers around 10:30 a.m., landing on private property. Sullivan said someone who discovered the panel notified authorities and the Air Force retrieved the part.

Latoya has lost control of these B-52s.

If the hatch killed someone then would that death be a Covid death? Hmmmmm

It landed right behind a friend's secretary in Elmwood... 
Appears to be a small hatch...

What a dumbass. If that landed on my property, that sumbitch would have been hanging in my house within the hour.

Were you injured by a falling aircraft part?
Posted on 5/1/20 at 3:06 pm to LSUFanHouston
Ironic just the other day people here expressed concern about flying in 100 year old airframes

I would have kept it

Maybe they thought they could bomb the corona, kinda like people think they can bomb hurricanes.

It was an oil filler door off of one of the engine cowlings. Dropped objects/parts happen all the time, even from new aircraft.

More like a servicing door, not much bigger than your hand, piano hinge half on one side, one fastener to keep it latched. from the photo I saw the hinge pin broke letting the access door come off...the latch was still latched and the piano hinge half is in one piece.

similar to this but much smaller. a piano hinge is the pivot point for this door to open.
