DL2483 LAS-ATL 5/2/1014 Anyone on this flt? Emergency in LAS.
Just heard that this flt was taking off when a WN flt was still crossing the active runway. ATC told DL to abort takeoff. When they did they braked so hard that while taxing back to the gate the fuse plugs melted and the brakes were locked. The AC could not be moved or towed. All the passengers had to wait for about two hours for the airport to send buses. I heard maintenance had to go out to the taxiway to change four main gear tires before they could tow it back to the gate.
Was anyone on this flt?
