N136UP (cn 819) UPS Airbus misses a turn on to taxiway Romeo during extremely poor visibility. Eventually pulled out after about 16 hours. Hats off to all of the ground crews that worked in the bitter cold to remove the a/c.

I can only imagine, Big D was probably sweatin that. I like the shot Pat, the angle is nice, clear and crisp but I'm really eyeing those rigs. Making my jeans tight! :-)

(red) ....and yeah, it was strapped to the mains, one truck on each. Serious torque.

(red) winched it out, and maintenance wasn't very happy if you know what I mean.

(wrench) no prob, at least I don't feel that old, lol. My dad was a dispatcher for Wright in his early career I think, I will have to verify that..(now I'm a little curious).

Nice work. So how exactly was it towed out. Did they hook straps up to the mains?

Sorry not trying to make you old....but with distinctive last name like yours it must be your dad? LOL

(wrench4fred) Nope, I'm afraid that was a little before my time....although I believe my dad did....do you recognize my last name?
