LawnDart21 0 #1 June 20, 2002 I heard bits and pieces of a story yesterday about a C-130 that was dumping fire retardant on a forest fire that went down yesterday or the day before. Does anyone have any info or links to any stories on it? Thanks."I live to EFS"Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #2 June 20, 2002 Check cnn.com. They don't have a lot of info. They said the wings had been repaired for cracks a few years ago, but that's about it.For BOTH wings to separate at the same time is highly unusual. Usually once one wing goes, it unloads the other one and that one remains attached until impact.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
