Monitor, the turnpike is dangerous enough without everyone looking for aircraft engine parts.

Remember it was a Continental DC-10 that caused the concord crash.

Of course you're right about that, Boomer.

I forgot to put the http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif in the Tpke post and the http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif in the last one. I never used them but somebody just pointed the FAQ out to me.

milesrus:

Caused is a subject people can debate.

Maybe the cause was poor tire design, poor engine design, alot of things contributed to the crash.

Personally I find a plane that crashes because of a blown tire on takeoff, to be somewhat lacking in design.
