I wonder if the plane dragged the truck out of it's parking spot as it smushed it? It does appear to have moved the motorhome. It would have been a major disaster if it caught fire.

Thanks for the photos of the incident.

This could have been so much worse. Prayers for the people on the plane that were injured.

Looks like God had a hand in keeping everyone safe with so many being at the race. Guess we better put this on the list of modern day miracles.

Thank You God for keeping all the racers and spectators safe.

Thanks for that info Ed. Do you or anyone have info on the other vehicles damaged? Also, any info yet on how the pilot and passengers are doing? That info may take some time to be public.

This guy does a very good job of breaking down aviation incidents. He?s a commercial pilot and dispels a lot of the armchair pilot rumors.

Had heard that rumor too but I would believe his to be a little nicer and most drivers m/hs were parked in the back field near gate 17 I believe
