This is going to be a great thread!

Pilots say it was 3 feet over the line. "ground personel fault!!!)

Ground crew say it was not more than a foot.. (pilot error!!!)

(this gathered from many forums.)

I blame the guy who painted the lines. He should have measured everything then added ten feet, then a bit more and then five feet for the wife and kids!

""the board of enquiry finds that the purchase of 5 gallons of black paint, to cover up the existing markings, and 5 gallons of paint in assorted colors and a six inch brush will prevent another occurence of this tragic incident""
