Meigs landing a setup?
Was the second emergency landing in two weeks at Meigs Field more than just
a coincidence? Was it a political setup? Mayor Daley apparently thinks so.
Daley didn't come right out and say it, but he insinuated that the private
pilot from Maine who made an emergency landing at Meigs on Sunday after
running into electrical trouble on a flight to Oshkosh, Wis., might have had
an ulterior motive: to embarrass the mayor for his March 30 destruction of
Meigs Field. "This is the city of Chicago. It's in the state of Illinois.
Oshkosh is up there. It's north of here a couple hours. If he's going to
Oshkosh, that man is going in the wrong direction," the mayor said. Richard
Randall, a 63-year-old pilot from Standish, Maine, suffered an electrical
failure, lost radio contact with air traffic controllers and landed his 1946
Piper PA-12 Super Cruiser amid rubble churned up by Daley's demolition.
