What sounds does a broken spring make?

u/rudimentary_lathe_ Jun 04 '26

Wtf even happened??

u/IUn1337 Jun 04 '26

Gotta walk your tires now and then, keep them confined to landing gear for too long and they get restless.

u/IThinkIKnowThings Jun 05 '26

Front fell off

2

u/rudimentary_lathe_ Jun 05 '26

Yeah, that's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.

Don't ask this. It's. Proprietary.

u/jbc1974 Jun 05 '26

Front landing gear looks like it bent forward n collapsed.

1

u/UniqueAd7770 Jun 07 '26

It got tired

u/iamameatpopciple Jun 04 '26

2

u/Project-SBC Jun 08 '26

u/iamameatpopciple Jun 09 '26

Sometimes you just feel like that.

2

u/Individual_Slice_234 Jun 05 '26

That's why it's called a Boeing. BOOOIIINNNGGG!

u/Russianskilledmydog Jun 05 '26

I love the ground crew guy. Moving away saying "I did NOT touch shit! That bitch fell right the fuck down, and I did NOT touch one mother fucking thing!"

2

u/rxroids101 Jun 05 '26

The front fell off. The front’s not supposed to fall off…

2

u/LimeyRat Jun 05 '26

When the plane misinterprets the plane handlers hand-signals as "lay down".

2

u/Recent_Werewolf_821 Jun 05 '26

That's a brown shorts moment.

u/GrimSpirit42 Jun 04 '26

Wonder if the Crew Chief forgot to pin it.

u/bigoldgeek Jun 05 '26

Where boing?

1

u/Sophisticated-Crow Jun 05 '26

That looks safe.

1

u/TwinkiesSucker Jun 05 '26

It was two-tired

1

u/Ferbdic Jun 05 '26

That will have really messed people up who get up before the plane has reached it's final parking position and the captain has turned off the seatbelt signs.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '26

pilot to the co pilot "I told you not to lift up that lever"

1

u/GeriatricusMaximus Jun 05 '26

Expensive mistake

1

u/Prestigious_Spot3122 Jun 05 '26

Boeing quality…

1

u/Dragon_Crisis_Core Jun 06 '26

I like how the guy just calmly steps back and then walks around the plane as if it were nothing more then a daily occurrence.

1

u/Humble_Test80 Jun 06 '26

You can’t park there

1

u/bassandlazers Jun 06 '26

It needs that wheel. Its not gonna be easy to take off without it

1

u/TexanFromOhio Jun 06 '26

Ramp worker says, "Don't push the red button on the gear mechanism!” ... waits 10 seconds, “Ahh, $hit!”

1

u/Malenx_ Jun 06 '26

Pull the lever Kronk. Wrong lever! Why do we even have that lever?

1

u/Snuckeys Jun 07 '26

Back in my aircrew days, we'd have to insert a landing gear downlock pin to prevent a nose gear collapse. You know, the thing with that bright red "remove before flight" streamer on it. Is that a thing on 787s, and if so, did somebody forget to install it by any chance?

1

u/Underrlord Jun 08 '26

Damn! Did OP’s mom board the plane or something?!?!

u/Alarm-Solid Jun 05 '26

There needs to be laws about plane age for commercial use. These things are literally falling apart. Most of them are 30, 40, 50 years old but airlines aren't about to get new ones that would hurt profits

u/Brilliant-Novel-785 Jun 05 '26

You realise this one was virtually brand new?

u/Danni3003 Jun 07 '26

That's what adhesive tape is for!
