It looks like the Challenger skidded off the runway and crashed into a
warehouse at TEB.


Yesterday, NPR news stated that the mayor is pushing for reducing the number of
flights at TEB and installing "foam crash barriers" at the ends of the runway.

No mention of the fact that the deceleration produced by barriers like that
would have killed everyone on board this aircraft had they been in place.

He who would distinguish what is true from what is false must have an
adequate understanding of truth and falsehood.




Build some sort of ramp thing that would carry the plane up and over the road as it stops, like a runaway truck ramp
;-)
