Haz, would you rather be the engine or the container in that scenario?

I think Haz would rather be the other engine - just watching.

Apparently it wasn't satisfied with the liquid diet it was being fed and wanted some solid food for a change.

THAT is how you keep birds out of engines.

All hail the cargo container overlords.

As entertaining as that was, this one has far greater potential for humor

I always wondered what really happened to my luggage when I flew with Air Canada and it never made it to the same spot that I was going to. Maybe this is the answer

Damn! I hate it when that happens.

When I worked on the ramp @ YVR ten years ago I recall that some of those containers LOOKED like they'd been sucked into an engine. Some were so badly damaged that it would take 20 mins to load it onto the aircraft.

I'm surprised the aluminum didn't collapse, they call them cans for a reason.

a windy day at YYZ blew an errant LD3 of my old ground handling company's across from T3 to T1 and dinged an AC bird.

4N did this.

Twenty bucks says he's the guy that dings your car in the parking lot.

I actually flew overhead LAX the next day and caught this photo of them changing the engine.
