My mother's cousin's best friend's rommate was in that accident. We'll be attending the funeral at a nest located in the tree 3 miles southwest of the airport runway.

The airport is out in Ise Bay...not a lot of trees to be found on the waves :wink:

カモメが進入し、滑走路を一時閉鎖 中部空港

2007年09月02日22時44分
 中部空港(愛知県常滑市)で2日午後8時すぎから約1時間半の間に、カモメが断続的に滑走路へ進入したため、計3回にわたって滑走路が最長11分閉鎖された。この影響で香港発キャセイパシフィック航空532便など計3便が中部空港から関西空港へ目的地を変更した。


3 incoming Cathay Pacific flights diverted to Kansai airport when the Chubu airport runway became infested with kamome and was shut down for an hour and a half. Fire engines deployed to chase them away, eventually succeeded.

Well, there ya go! They forgot the damn goat slaughter again --- shit, and I thought our lazy - cant read-the boeing - AD's just f*d up. Oh well, better luck next time. Personally I carry a little vial of goats blood on every flight for just this sort of thing. Unfortunately Northwest (and other shit American flights) will not allow me to bring goats blood on the plane for fear it could be liquid explosive. NOW -- who would you rather fly with ?? The blessings of Buddah or luck of the incompetent mechanics???

BTW - Steve Fossett -- whats up with that?? 'There's old pilots and bold pilots, but no such thing as old, bold ones' Farm must be cheap in Colorado..

I guess what she's trying to say is: "don't fly China Airlines".
