Besides, wait till FFE has weighed in on the plane. This is totally, TOTALLY Ontario or Quebec. Quite honestly, I remember times my father was called out to shoo a moose off the runway in Wiarton.
FYI the best explanation of the Gimli Glider is over at http://damninteresting.com . My father was an aircraft mechanic but even he couldn’t give me the sense of immediacy in that report. I should blog about it someday…
Thank you – I’ve been looking for a decent picture of an F-16C ‘big-mouth’ intake for three years now for a conversion project.
I won’t argue with the strong possibility that this is in Canada, but it could also be an Alaskan airfield. The van is probably USAF flight line (Grumman bodywork). I couldn’t get enough resolution to tell if the camo was U.S. or Canadian/NATO pattern.
I’ll be on the corner selling hot dogs, Polish sausages, cold drinks, and pictures with a Bush cutout and the caption, “I didn’t vote for the stupid fuckwit!”
I dunno rain, could be those pesky Swedes at it again.
Not at all: their moose are bisexual.

Gander Newferland perhaps?
Praps.

Now, if you want to see strange flightline creatures, nobody looked at this:

See, there ya go.
If it’s an Alaskan airfield it’s still probably a Canadian moose, Alaska being somewhat narrower than the normal range of said moose.
Also: seen the F-111 that hit a pelican?
Nope, but I saw the F-14 whose plane captain forgot to fasten the radome latches before launch. Looked like a Pelican and a moose hit it.
For some reason, I feel strangely like Vicus Scurra
You ARE my Vicus.
When I’m not all up in the blogspot space.
I’m not sure which of you should hate that more.
We’ll decide later who should thank you and who should retaliate.
Pointless,given my US supportorship. Just give up now. Save time.
Hey, the anniversary’s coming up in 2012. Maybe this is just a practice run.
If McCain wins the White House, they’ll probably invite us to burn it down again.

Rumors have been confirmed that Hayden Panettiere is enroute to save the moose.
Is she related to Hayden Planetarium?
I know she’s a hero. And I’m cheering for her to win!
