7:00 and 8:00 p.m. wind out of the east at about 10 miles per hour. the wind itself, certainly nothing to be worried about, but a slick runway and then if the pilot comes in too hard and too long, in other words, doesnt give himself enough room to actually run the plane, that becomes a problem. and if you hit the arrester beds, which is what happened in this case last night, the plane went off the end of the runway and then into this crushable concrete material designed to stop a plane when it i...
