what a dddddddd*********... man did you here that thud????
Cool video, def not the smoothest landing but a landing nonetheless.
Very cool, he sounds a bit unstable to be sitting in the left seat but I guess if the bathroom at my work looked like that I might act a bit goofy too. To his credit looks like he was all business when out of the cruise. I got the operator from the reg number on the panel, but don't want to spoil it for everyone. Was there another way to tell that I missed or is that what you meant?
actually that was not the way ut from hearing the callsign but hey that will work too. lol
I will have to listen again. FYI if you look up the tail number on A.net you will see quite a few pics of this old workhorse in its various liveries, the thing is almost 40 years old.
I think's it's definately got to be Arrow Air, it's based out of MIA and fly to S. America. I was on a Kalitta flight to Boston and I can tell you cargo crews are out of whack sometimes they don't even wear uniforms!
Its N906R - nobody noticed the reg tag on the dashboard ? :)
