Meanwhile, the was a massive bugstrike in the central United States that obscured a critical part of the captain's view during final approach. Using skills obtained from 1000's of hours of flying, he was able to shift his head slightly to the side and somehow managed a safe and controlled landing. All passengers and crew walked away from the incident. The bug was scraped away using Windex...

Ugh... I wondered how long it was going to take someone to come up with that.

What is the last thing to go through a bug's mind as he smashes into the windshield? His anus.

Glad you folks enjoyed this bit of whimsy. I had no idea it would be so popular.

All of the outrageous hype over the 787 plus a couple of beers equaled irritation and flying fingers on the keyboard. Hope I didn't offend the op.

Back in the day, I washed a lot of cockpit windows in the summer on Beach 99's, Banderantes, Metro II and IIIs and Beach 1900's. Hated grasshopper season. Can you tell?

Tires, actually. And I hear you need those.

It depends on how you land if you need them or not :) - There are some planes that do not have them... For Example the xF85 Parasite

It could have been dicey roll-out.The crew reacted appropriately to the indication, which also worked as advertised. Which I suppose is reason enough to applaud.

WOW.. Go Figure... I am surprised they were able to land at all... UGH.. Non-News event... I deal with crap like that all day long...

The way it usually goes for me is:

Crew - "I appears that we have the #4 tire low" -

Me - "No problem (get the logbook info), I will have a mechanic out there shortly"

Mechanic - "Tire Looks Good", "Added some air good to go", "We need to change the tire"....

All non-reportable events, as long as he does not get tow'd off the runway....

We did gave one that blew a tire on take off roll... Tower advised him of it, he continued to a base station, notified me via ACARS, and I had mechanics waiting for him.... They changed the tire on the ramp, and taxied to the gate", was reportable, but no emergency declared... Only damage to the a/c was the wheel hub that was coming off anyway.

It's the lawyers, Folks. We all have to COA's with such incidents. Airline or GA, we're all pretty much in the same boat and I don't want to lose my ticket for non-compliance with a minor or otherwise situation.
Been there, done that.
