Dog hits Plane
3/27/2008 6:28:05 PM


Bangalore, 27th of March. In the evening I heard a strong noise sounding over from the nearby HAL airfield to our 11th floor hospital room. No planes were coming down, nor did I see any plane flying up. Yet, at times, a strong engine noise was heard. The morning newspaper brought the story: Plane hit by dog!

As reported by the Times of India, a black stray dog crossed the runway at the moment when a Kingfisher flight bound for Hyderabad was about to take off. The dog's body jammed the plane's nosewheel, the plane came to an uneasy grinding halt, and passengers were evacuated. The airport was closed for two hours. The HAL airport authorities blame
civic authorities - quoting an unwatched corner of the airfield, where grass is high, and the stray city dogs can sneak in.

A typical dog story? Certainly a node where the past meets the present.
