FEDEX CREW TAKES A RAGGING:
A FedEx crew recently fought off a piece of fabric they didn't cotton to.
Crewmembers kept their wits about them and landed their MD-11 safely in
Honolulu, Hawaii, after a flight control malfunction that required full
left aileron to prevent the plane from rolling over. A post-flight
inspection showed three of the right wing spoilers were jammed in the full
"up" position because of a rag stuck in a pulley. The MD-11 had recently
undergone maintenance and had made nine flights with no problem.
A NIFTY HOLIDAY GIFT:
Got a hard-to-buy-for spouse? Well, another airport is for sale and likely
