Delta Jet Dumps Fuel on Schoolchildren During Emergency Landing at LAX

Breitbart:

A Delta Airlines jet flying from Los Angeles to Shanghai on Tuesday was forced to make an emergency landing at LAX — and dumped jet fuel on the city, including on children playing outside at Park Avenue Elementary School in Cudahy.

The Los Angeles Times reported:

Delta Flight 89 had taken off from LAX with 149 passengers and was en route to Shanghai when it turned around and headed back to the airport because of engine trouble.

The pilots took the plane — a Boeing 777 — north over Malibu within four minutes after takeoff at 11:32 a.m., according to Flightradar24, a firm that maintains airline path data across the globe.

According to Flightradar24, Tuesday’s flight never got above 8,000 feet and was at about 2,300 feet when it passed over Park Avenue Elementary School in Cudahy at 11:53 a.m. The plane showered jet fuel on schoolchildren below.

CBS News reported that three schools were affected: READ MORE

  1. … it’s just kerosene, shake it off.

    Babies.

    Probably the only time MODERN kids will get acquainted with ANYTHING that drives the modern world in these namby-pamby liberal schools that spend all their time being racist agaibst the White children while discussing their crotches in detail, and they STILL don’t know if they are boys or girls when their done.

    Doesn’t leave a lot of time for stuff about actual, productive WORK, what with the focus on the Evil Orange Man who must be removed and all, so maybe a little fuel annointing will do em some GOOD…

  2. ..seriously, though, these things are VERY controlled and the plane is supposed to ask ATC for permission even to dump fuel, and is typically routed to avoid this kind of thing. You can’t dump fuel quickly, it takes awhile and you usually have to go into a holding pattern to do it, so if youre emergency is THAT extreme, your flight manual ALSO has instructions for conducting an overweight landing to deal with it.

    I bet we’ll find an Affirmative Action hire, probably with poor English skills, in the cockpit, at ATC, or both. This was kind of stupid and should not have happened unless it had a hole on the fuel tank, but if it IS because of a Protected Persuasion, you can be SURE the NTSB report will be delayed for YEARS and then blame something ELSE…

  4. Throw the clothes away, take a shower, wash off with tomato juice, shower again, and you’re as good as new. I’m serious about throwing the clothes away. Unless you have a washer and dryer dedicated for greasers you’ll be sorry if you try and wash them. Here is a handy hint, if you have a load of greasers that you intend to wash, pour in a can of coke, they will come out sparkling clean.
