Here's a landing pic. I can't quite make out the lettering under the cockpit.

No not me. That highlights the importance of doing a final walk around before you fire up. I always stop before I climb the stairs and look under the plane at the landing gear and in front of the plane for chocks and cones and possibly tow bars

Good thing they brought it with them, they can probably use it to haul the wreck off the runway  |
