a mechanic was working on a boeing 747 at the Pinal air park near
Marana, Arizona, north of Tucson on west side of I-10 when the nose gear
collapsed trapping the worker in the wheel well. workers had to use a
crane to raise the aircraft and free the worker. he was transported to
hospital in critical condition

Pinal Air Park is where many airlines park aircraft they are not using
or no longer need, there is a companion place in the Mojave Desert town
of Barstow. here, you find aircraft from many of the world's airlines.
The place can be easily seen from the freeway.

At one time, this place used by the US CIA

nanny act a rest.

It is about an aviation accident. Someone here might even know the guy,
since he works on aircraft, you know.

The 'a' in r.a.p stands for "aviation."

Meant to do it in the compressed air car thread?
Or the Test drove electric car thread?
Oh, noooo, you contributed something different there.

You're joking here, right?

As a side note, It is SOP at most airlines that the gear is pinned
when maintenence is being performed. Wonder if they have this policy
at these storage facilities. Hope the guy makes it.
