quote:EUGENE, Ore. - A scary situation for a plow truck driver Sunday after his plow tipped over on I-105. ODOT said one of its plow truck drivers was plowing some slush from westbound 105 near the Delta Highway exit during the afternoon when he hit bare pavement. It caused his truck to flip over.

Both of the westbound lanes and one eastbound lane were shut down as crews cleaned up the scene, but they were opened back up a few hours later.

ODOT said the driver was transported to the hospital, but officials said he seems to be okay.

    Like was the Plane on the runway, did the airfield even know they had a plane inbound.

    Hell even back in the 70's if you were in a vehicle on the runway you had to have radio contact with the tower, to cross the runway you had to ask permission.

    quote:MARINE CORPS AIR STATION YUMA, Arizona -- A T-59 Hawk, civilian aircraft, crashed at approximately 11:45 a.m. on a MCAS Yuma runway Wednesday.

    Lance Cpl. Anthony T. DuBeau died as a result of injuries sustained from the crash when the aircraft impacted a government vehicle. DuBeau was assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron (H&HS) aboard MCAS Yuma.

    "Our hearts and prayers go out to the family and friends of the Marine we lost in this tragic accident," stated MCAS Yuma Commanding Officer, Col. Ricardo Martinez. "We at MCAS Yuma stand ready to provide support to his family."

    DuBeau, 23, a native of Kenosha, WI., enlisted in the Marine Corps April 1, 2013. He served within H&HS as an aviation operations specialist. His personal awards include the National Defense Service Medal and Global War on Terrorism Medal.

    Some of DuBeau's daily duties included inspecting the airfield for any discrepancies, creating and disseminating deployment schedules, status reports on on-going airfield construction projects, and releasing flight plans received from pilots.

    The incident is currently under investigation by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).

    This is in a 35mph zone. Lights each direction half a block On a curve. The direction and side of the road it is on heavy traffic and its a 25mph zone less than a half block. So with the damage how did they get it going fast enough to do that damage.

    The jet was operated by a civilian contractor there to do training. This report says the aircraft lost control while still on the ground and collided with a vehicle, killing Lance Cpl. Anthony T. DuBeau who was in the vehicle.

    Seems like the pilot lost it during takeoff and went off the runway.
    The vehicle's position might have been proper.

    Used to make my hair stand up a bit, when sitting at the run-up area and watching inbound traffic fighting strong, gusty crosswinds which sometimes had them lined up for a landing right on me [:0][V].
