That's those tyres flat spotted for sure.
Wonder how long it took to get the smell of sh*t out of the cabin?

Re: Hard landing at windy Birmingham last week.
When I took off from BHX yesterday the aircraft was shaking as well.
But what made my day was the Biman DC-10-30 (sorry for the poor BlackBerry quality). Never expected to see a pax version in my life again after so many years. I read later that she came in for some farewell flights before being transferred to a museum in US. Unfortunately this won't come true and after the farewell flights she will go to Dhaka awaiting her fate

She is the last passenger DC-10 left flying as was also the very last DC-10 to roll off the Long Beech production line. It will be doing pleasure flights all weekend from Birmingham, but I have been told it will then be preserved at Bruntingthorpe Aerodrome in the UK.sprocky wrote:When I took off from BHX yesterday the aircraft was shaking as well.
