At the end of the day, it was Rich's Towing who came to the rescue of this stricken Airbus which spent the day stuck in the grass at the end of taxiway bravo. After several failed attempts using airport tugs to free the bird, it was determined that calling Rich's in was the best idea. Rich's are experts at heavy and unusual tows, and are often called upon when heavy metal needs to be moved.

you never see the guys on the tv show "wrecked" pulling airplanes out of the mud. i wonder how much paperwork the pilot had to do for this "incident".

Ha! I was sitting at Bomber's Group for a nit and had no idea what the 300 was doing just sitting out there. I thought maybe it was stuck in the snow or something. Then, the Fed Ex A300 took off overhead...That would've been a funny picture!!
