>The actor and longtime aviation enthusiast was piloting a plane at the Hawthorne Airport in Los Angeles on April 24, when he crossed a runway where another aircraft was landing.
>"The FAA is investigating an incident in which the pilot of an Aviat Husky taxied across the runway at Hawthorne Municipal Airport Friday afternoon while another aircraft was performing a touch-and-go landing," the FAA spokesperson said in an email statement.
>A spokesperson for the FAA said the two aircraft were approximately 3600 feet apart at the time.
>This is not the first time that Ford has made headlines when it comes to his piloting. In 2015, he was hospitalized after an aircraft he was flying had to make a forced landing on a golf course. At the time, an investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board said that the plane's engine had failed.
>In 1999, Ford had to make a emergency landing in a California riverbed while flying in a helicopter.
Kinos about senile retards way past their prime who should be in a home?
Try standing 3600 feet away from a plane and tell me you feel safe

>77 years old These fucking geriatrics can't even drive cars, why are we letting them fly planes?

There's a lot of information missing here. Was the airport controlled or not? Stuff like this is far more common at uncontrolled airports where each pilot is individually responsible for communicating their intentions and giving the right of way to other aircraft.

you can't put emergency landings on the same fucking level as landing on the wrong runway during normal flight emergencies are emergencies, he just fucking didn't bother looking at the airport and landed wherever he liked

Propwash and Jetwash are no joke and will easily flip planes or other vehicles.
the speed and mass of planes landing and taking off at high speed to an onlooker may seem slow and ponderous but in those situations you can't veer off and dodge a hazard. normies get crushed by trains all the time because they are so fast massive and cannot full brake for a mile without causing a derailment
Harry has been wanting a rich boy viking funeral for some time now. There are stories of 1%'rs flying their planes over the sea until they run out of fuel and fighter jets have to be dispatched to watch them until they crash becuase they won't respond to radio calls
Thats 5.5 furlongs or 55 chains, or around 1200 yards. seems safe enough for me

WTF didn't this happen three years ago??
>Hawthorne Airport in Los Angeles on April 24, when he crossed a runway where another aircraft was landing.
>On February 13, 2017, Ford landed an Aviat Husky at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, on the taxiway left of runway 20L. A Boeing 737 was holding short of the runway on the taxiway when Ford overflew them.[97]
