Airvan Excursion at YSBK
 
What happened to the poor old Airvan this morning at Bankstown?
Parked in the overshoot off the end of Runway 11L.
It was very considerate to park it outside the gable markers so it didn't close the runway. :8

If it did hit a hanger, how would you even be able to tell?! :}

Look for comfortable seats. They'll the ones in the office while the other seats will be in the Airvan?

All very amusing folks. :D

Amazingly, this must be the first incident that has ever occurred in the history of Bankstown airport that wasn't observed, and even if not observed, at least commented on by all and sundry. :rolleyes:

The rumour mill of Bankstown Airport really must be dead...

Nope, wheel or tyre separated during take off roll.

Scare can?? How can you call those docile little crap boxes scary? And cans are round, these are square. Breadvan would be a more apt nickname for them.

Cylindrical is probably more apt. Plenty of square cans. Quite a lot of rectangle cans too.

Ok then square van :)

No, it's YSBK that's dead. Just a reflection of the sad movement rate at YSBK these days, really!!

About 20% of its peak, and dropping.

Tootle pip!!
