Reminds me of an incident several years ago at KBDL where they had 50kts winds at night, AA or UAL diverted to a field 50 miles away, US Air made an approach and barely cleared the ridge line, tree branches went through the engines. Moral of the story, the crew that diverted still have their jobs.
Isn't that
1. Pure speculation
2. Off the point
3. Inaccurate...I think another airlines narrow body hit some trees in that part of the world some years ago and got away with it..not much in the news about it. To my knowledge there was not a US Air incident at KBDL in recent memory. Please if relevant supply the links.
Thanks.
