Where were the potholes? In the pits or out on the track someplace? I remember when Pomona had the roughest shutdown area out there.

Several years ago, a 767 wide body got glided in on the dragstrip at Gimli Manitoba. It had run out of fuel and the pilot dead sticked it in. It was successfully emergency landed, they fixed it and flew it back out after repairs.
