Not sure if this was posted before, but my plan to rid the world of 737's is working well

I'm going to stick my neck out and say it failed the test!

If what the BBC says is true (probably not!) about a brake test, I'd like to see their thought process before they started.

Brakes work = test pass =

Brake don't work = test fail = slide off end of runway =

I'm sure there's more to it!

Good job they did a test.

Those brakes were obviously shite.

There were no passengers on board at the time and there are no reports of any injuries to the crew, as the BBC's Jane Hill explains.

I bet the laundry basket wasn't so lucky

Those of us who remember Roger Bacon in Flight magazine from the 70's would see this picture as a definite candidate for the phrase:

'Still too late on the roundout Hoskins'

That report reads more like Engine Runs n then the brakes let go.
