Aircraft can stall at any speed.

He was probably going around 76 knots, which is the best glide speed in that plane. I did all my single engine training in the same plane.

I'm going to guess 66 knots.

Why is it so difficult to remove the plane? I don’t get it.

Because there are at least two agencies investigating the incident. There's also likely to be a civil suit if the 75k+ engine was damaged as the result of poor workmanship by the service company.

and what's odd is you don't see a lot of idiots weaving in and out of traffic trying to gain advantage if there's as much as a car length space in the next lane, people seem to more or less "go with the flow," have never seen any road rage down there either


That's called acceptance. Baton Rouge is still in denial.

India has been dealing with this for a long time.

I think the NTSB has to perform an investigation and I’m assuming they couldn’t get there until at least tomorrow. That’s just my guess though.

Wont matter... BR traffic will be fricked for 3 days now due to this. Tomorrow all these fools will be out rubbernecking a skid mark in the grass from the plane tire.



You joke (I think)...but if that plane is still sitting there, people are going to slow down and look.

I drove that stretch of I-10 headed to Prairieville about 3:30 and traffic was slowed down starting well before Highland exit. And shocker....traffic begin to pick up speed again right after where the plane was sitting.

So you don’t think this would create a traffic jamb in Houston, Austin, Dallas or any other city?

Jesus.
