|
|
In view of the recent RAAF F-111 belly landing, I thought the URL below
about recovering a USAF B-1 after a belly landing, might be of interest to
some readers. I have seen pictures in AA magazine which show the RAAF did
not use the same method to recover the F-111.

I'm almost afraid to ask, how did the RAAF do it? |

Re-read the post.
The RAAF didn't do it. The original poster said;
"In view of the recent RAAF F-111 belly landing, I thought the URL below
about recovering a USAF B-1 after a belly landing..."
The aircraft in the link is the USAF B-1 during that aircrafts recovery
operation earlier this year. (Prior to the RAAF F-111 mishap) |

Australian Aviation magazine has a picture of house removal trucks with the
F-111 on board the flatbed.
