A Boeing 767 arriving at Barcelona airport on Saturday and had to abort a landing when an Airbus A340 crossed into its runway.

Oh! They got a slightly bigger problem than that!

Now watch when they try to sell them as new aircraft-corporate greed being what it is these days.

I think I'll stop flying in presoaked 737's for a while!

Is it a plane, is it a train, is it a boat?

It's...a wreck...

EDIT: Boing 767...

Well, I suppose it did kind of go 'Boing' when it slammed on the gas and climbed again....

^"Photos from the scene showed three 737 fuselages that tumbled down an embankment, two of which were partly submerged in the Clark Fork River below the tracks. A fourth 737 fuselage appeared to have been torn apart during the derailment and was resting next to the tracks." So much for 'finely tuned logistics'

The East river is a jet magnet.

That or they're a new type of fresh water submarine.

One thing's for sure...
Insurance rates and ticket prices are going up...again.
