Watch a Plane Nearly Take Off a Photographer's Head at Lancaster Airport

Categories: Transportation


Note to self: Never ride a 4-wheeler on the runway at Lancaster Airport. That's what some members of Texas-based Team Stunters were doing last week when they were nearly hit by a modified Pitts S2S biplane. The camera person is completely excused if they crapped their pants.

The plane was piloted by one Jason Newberg, a 43-year-old "extreme acrobatic pilot" who apparently gets his kicks by steering his lifeforms, according to The Smoking Gun. He did not reply to TSG's request for comment.

Note to stupid people, airport runways tend to have airplanes speeding down them.

this is exactly why this citizen should have been armed with some sort of tactical anti-aircraft weaponry!

They would have been but for Obama! Situations like this are exactly what the 2nd Amendment was designed to protect us against -- everyone needs a personal Stinger in the event of an attack by biplane.  Or if the Cubans and Nicaraguans invade via Mexico.
