Another Kalitta 747 down

[Nitrohelper]

Connie lost another plane ,this time in Columbia,reports say engine trouble after take-off.
At least two killed on the ground ,no report yet on the crew.
It had a load of flowers bound for Miami.

I won't speak for Kalitta air, but just about all of those 747's are over 30 years old. Metal fatigue must be a huge problem.

I can't believe people actually lived through that... Amazing.

Connie could use some good mojo right now... Hopefully they will get a win this weekend. Thoughts are with the family of the those lost.

This just horrible, I feel sick to my stomach. It is unbelieveble that anybody could survive that. My best to the Kalitta's and those that lost loved ones. Just terrible.

As does Doug K.

Man, I can't even begin to understand how trying the last month has been for the Kalitta clan. As everyone else, I am sending nothing but good thoughts and vibes Conrad's way. Good luck on and off the track guys ....

A single company has a 2nd Plane wreck that will raise a red flag to the FAA.
Poor Connie after everything he has been through doesn't need this!
I agree I hope that team gets another win this weekend.

 

[DrRocket]

Man, this has been the year from hell for Connie and the Kalitta clan.


My prayers and thoughts go out to them, and their employees, and the innocents on the ground.

Flown in and out of Bogota a few times- not one of those places that you want a hickup....

Very sorry to hear about the families on the ground- and very happy to know that the crew made it off ok.. No more ****e over there in the K Kamp, alright? Enough is enough...Hang tough, Conrad

This is really sad, Connie is going trhough a really tough time right now, this is the last thing that needed to happen to that family.
