    N88ZL 707 off the runway in Hamilton

    <<Bon Jovi's personal chartered 707 (N88ZL)has gone off the far end of Runway 12 in Hamilton, Ontario. Everyone is alive and well. Flight was operating KBUF to CYHM for his first show scheduled for tonight in Toronto at the Air Canada Centre.

    Details are in short supply just yet, but the weather wasn't promising last night when the flight arrived.

    Weather at the time: CYHM 210524Z 05010KT 1/4SM -RA FG VV002 RMK FG8>>

    looks like it will still be in service. there didn't appear to be much damage from the pix i saw on anet.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I don't know if its still in service. Todays fligth was cancelled as well. I think its safe to say that its still in service. Probably just making sure its 100% safe now.

    The photo I saw on Anet didn't look too bad. Thankfully there was a hill, I think that's what saved the engines from striking.

    What a beautiful bird, would be a shame if she never flew again.

    N88ZL is back at JFK today. I saw her sitting in her usual spot at around 11:00am.

    Hey guys,

    N88ZL left JFK for EWR earlier this afternoon (wow, talk about worthwhile trips..) and is now due to depart at 15:30 for MSP. Hopefully Senga will be able to catch this one again, this time in better light! :)

    Regards,

    OMAR!!! :)
    No I didn't go out for N88ZL this time. I have so many shots of It I figured I'd stay here and listen for the scanners and flight trackers for Art. That plane sure gets around.
