The nice part is that the passengers never knew how close they came to a bad day.

Default It's not landing

The plane in that photo is actually taking off....there is a comment from the photographer at the bottom of the page. I can't imagine how much sweat must have been on the palms of the pilot as he was restraining from yanking back on that yoke.

Default Taxiway 'B" closed.

Here's one I took one morning whilst taxiing out in Penang, Malaysia.
It wasn't there when we arrived the night before.
