Kalitta Cargo.
RTO and runway overshoot, brussels, yesterday. No serious injuries (4 out of 5 crew members had light injuries).
Good opportunity to get a 747 shell on europes mainland?
MichelvdM ? something for you ? ;-)

Nice.. Not much left of that is there? although the flight deck appears to be in good shape if you know how to clean blood stains :)

With respect to what this crash could've resulted in but didn't...
That front slide looks steep! Fun!

Nahhhh.... no blood stains....
If people got seriously injured, i wouldnt have posted it this way. Just some bruises according to the reports....
Can imagine the slide alone would cause some bruises too.

very lucky indeed. The 747 was loaded with full on its way to the middle east. Dont want to think of what could have happened.
The lines in front are of a railway that also accomodates high speed trains... could be much worse !
Slide looks steep indeed. Maybe because its going right into a ditch ?

They did that because they could'nt afford to fill the fuel tanks anymore.
