Bon Jovi Plane skids off the runway in Canada

[Red October]

Damn, a 707? Wonder if it was John Travolta's? I know he charters it out to bands and other movie stars.

HAMILTON, Ontario -- An airliner carrying members of Bon Jovi skidded off a runway early Saturday after landing in severe weather.

The Boeing 707 carrying the band and its touring staff overshot the runway at Hamilton International Airport.

A spokeswoman said the 14 passengers and flight crew were arriving from Buffalo, N.Y., where the band played Friday. No one was hurt.

Shows scheduled for Saturday, Monday and Tuesday at Toronto's Air Canada Center were expected to proceed as planned, she said.

I wonder if the pilot said as they were leaving the plane, "Have a nice day"

I guess they didn't know the runway was "Slippery When Wet".

Ever laugh while trying to keep your mouth closed, and you end up blowing your nose on accident? That's what this thread did to me.

They should have taken a Homebound Train instead.

[Czar Soonerov]

That plane was burnin' at "7800 Degrees Fahrenheit."

They should have taken a Homebound Train instead.

No kidding. Hamilton is only 40 miles from Buffalo.
