Was that at Newark?

I know there was a plane at Newark that maintenance trashed by accident when they hit something.

The fuselage is now at an NJ Police Academy by me. They use it for training. I wonder if that was it.

Looks like one of the awful "dungeon" gates at EWR -- they should've run through the whole end of the terminal!

Yup, 114 is a dungeon gate.

The transcript doesn't sound accurate to me, however.

Yeah, those pictures are at least a year old. This incident at EWR was in the news and everything. It happened in the middle of the night and nobody was hurt.

The transcript is bogus, of course, and is just a joke.

Dungeon gate, as in a gate in an area where you can't see outside?

The "bogus" transcript made me laugh.

BTW, someone needs to plow DTW down.

Plow down DTW?, what a cool idea, how about using some old DC-9's and 10's. I'd buy a ticket to see that.
