Chuck,
The video is quite old. I'm wondering how it happened to get attention now. It got a ton of attention when it happened...I guess we just have short memories. It is during the testing of the DC-9-80 back in the '70s (they later called it the MD-80 but it was DC-9-80 on the Type Certificate). It is one of the hard landing tests. Unfortunately, the flight crew got the descent rate a bit high at impact/touchdown and the tail broke off...as it was designed to do. It is a test flight with the airplane touching down outside of the flight parameters. All the best, Rick "Chuck" wrote in message hlink.net... Hey Jay... I found a video for your page. It's an MD-80 falling apart after a hard landing. http://mysite.verizon.net/vze6kuhd/MD-80.mpg --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
