767 Loose Battery Connection
Thanks for the links, TopSwiss. Those guys earned their pay that day. They could easily have been overwhelmed. Airliners are supposed to be able to tolerate single point failures, beyond primary structure, but that one comes close.
I wonder what's happened to that plane and its mates, and wonder more if there was ever a repeat performance?
There was also an MD-82 whose main battery exploded while the plane was being towed across KSFO from gate to hangar in about 1987.
Be careful, ya' hear?
