For those that were worried...........(ya right) NO! IT wasn't me. I do work on the 787 and out on the flightline, but am smart enough to stay away from rolling wheels. We did have a guy a few years ago have his foot nearly twisted off on a 767 wheel/tire. I don't have any details on how it happend, but will post something when I get it. Hopefully they will be able to save his legs. That HAD to hurt. The concrete engine blocks (we call 'em "Big Blocks" they use them when storing an airplane for long periods of time) weight 19,000 pounds, each (and have "Remove Before Flight" stenciled on them:confused:) . Add to that the weight of the airplane and its a BAD day.
