Made a reference to your pic here at AAFO/Air racing


FYI


There is a thread there regarding the incident.

Making sure you were aware of my doings.


I can pull it if needed.


Thanks

I guess I should have made this clear in my original post. This is not my picture, I linked it from Facebook.

Is Ford filming a commercial trying to top towing a space shuttle?

They were both ugly to start with and it didn't do either one of them any good.

The Ford lost the battle. You can't tell there was a problem on the Hellcat except the tips of the prop...

Would someone mind decoding all this and describing what actually happened?

I'd have thought that was fairly clear, the CAF Hellcat hit a truck on the ramp.

Someone on the AFFO thread stated it TWO trucks. One with the horizontal and one with the prop...

In all seriousness when its all said and done, and the CAF fixes her, she should have this next to the kill markings.

I'd say he's asking a ligit question. Especially since now it sounds like two trucks may have been involved, which now doesn't seem as fairly clear to some of us. No harm in asking right? Or is it? :roll:

It's quite possible it may be the other way around depending on who came out worse. Which I would guess was not the Ford or other truck involved.
