Dead Dog on Runway
"Taegu Dropkick Blue 1 at 5 miles, joining initial with 4."
"Dropkick Blue 1 Taegu orbit your present position, we have a dead dog on the runway".
"Dropkick Blue 1 orbiting, section loose line astern go"..
4 pilots now pondering where else can we go, what with a wheels up aircaft yet to be cleared from the PSP runway. But a funny name for a gutzer. Fuel state?
Other sections now being told to orbit.
"Taegu, Dropkick Blue 1, we have 20 minutes, would you advise diversion."
"Dropkick Blue 1, Taegu, now clear to join initial with 4. You will be number 1 on the pitch, sorry for the hold, dead dog being picked up now.
Stupid thing was terminated by a landing aircraft. Advise 1 mile out."
"Dropkick Blue section reform echelon right go."
Anyone recall the US slang for a gutzer.
