Anyone know what happened to a Horizon DASH-8 at YVR on Tuesday Nov 30th? It was holding short of 08R with 5 fire trucks with their hoses out.
Just Curious, Thanks.
Friends at the fire hall tells me that the brakes were stuck on while taxiing and by the time it reached Lima 4 a small fire started.
cooling fans were used with hand line on standby. The aircraft was towed back and no one hurt. On a side note one another night one of the girls at the fire hall dived for a dog that got away from the cargo area and was getting too close to the runway. She got bit and is doing well. Must be a great and interesting job being a airport fire fighter. The best part they have the best view in the whole airport.
