- futureb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+33and now it has disappeared??!! the story gets juicy
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/6623901.stm - usedupfag, on 10/12/2007, -11/+40Leave it there and turn it into yet another call centre.

- vulgate, on 10/12/2007, -3/+21Planes get stuck in the USA too..
http://www.snopes.com/photos/airplane/i564.asp - randomracoon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17Which part of "stripped down" do you not understand?
- mlw4428, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16Coolest car ever!
- roguescout, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16Chop off the head and ass, gut it, and install a ramp at each end. Problem solved.
- kmb1794, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14"Saturday night I shut shop and go home and everything is fine," he told the BBC news website.
"Sunday morning when I get here, I raised my hands and said, 'Whaaa happen?'" - idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11-----> not a plane

you - macaca, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Hey this is how we Desis park, you got any problem with that?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10Better for a plane to stop on the street than for a plane to stop in mid air.
- chetanw, on 10/12/2007, -3/+10So you know nothing about India but want to leave a crap comment and boast about your ignorance?
- adaud, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7I'm sure you couldn't even point out India on the map.
- BZKyle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6This sounds hilarious! I am restating the story and adding unneeded exclamation marks!
- rrasco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6i think it has to do with how quickly it is dugg, not how many diggs it has.
- gllopc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Everything was fine until Sanjay realized that he was running out of quarters for the meter.
"I only have pennies!" - SteelChicken, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6a mobile call center!
- SpaceMonkeyZero, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Except in the USA, we move our planes off the road ASAP.
----------
Meanwhile, the naval station's Chambers Field was closed to all traffic save helicopters, and automobiles traveling to and from the base whizzed beneath the stuck C-5. The special tow bar arrived from Dover around noon and was used to hook the aircraft to a tractor, which succeeded in getting the plane turned around and moved off the runway by 4:30 P.M. Highway traffic was not disrupted, no one was injured, and the plane was not damaged.

I'd guess the fact it failed - noamchomskeet, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Drivers in india are just hired per job basis, and don't get paid very well unless they deliver the goods. I once hired a driver for 50 dollars to take me from delhi to rajistan to agra for a two day trip. He used to sleep in the car and always wait in the car even when it was 120 degrees outside.
It's a very poor country and people are just killing themselves to survive, so I'm not surprised this guy just got up and left and yeah you won't find him in a land of 1 billion people. If he stuck around, he would have been yelled at and fined by his employer for not delivering this airplane?!? - justhim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I wonder if they'll outsource the plane removal to the US.
- ApolloXLII, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7@ schnuu
yes.if a pair of pants can go for 67 Million dollars, then I'm going to assume somewhere around 874 trillion billion dollars... give or take a few hundred billion. - mattmollysdad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3they can turn it into a "theme hotel". something like those "Love Hotels" in Tokyo.
- Spuy767, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3What exactly do they mean when they say, "Driving the plane through the streets." Was he towing it? I mean, how in the ***** do you pull a 94 foot long aircraft, that is 22-26 feet wide at the wing roots and weighs approximately 30 tons through the streets?
- lintmonkey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@ futureb
Maybe it grew wings and flew away. - neogarfield, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Uh, the whole scene was quite funny. The driver of the trailer, apparently, did not know the route, and he stopped to ask directions. When he didnt get proper directions, he just left his truck, and his million dollar "passenger" there and fled the scene....
UPDATE TO THE ISSUE : That damned thing is STILL stuck in the streets!!! No reaction yet, even after worldwide media coverage!!! :D How crazy can governments get? I bet our government is still fumbling with how many employees to hire to move that plane! Lol! - riverside71, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3wait till the millions of homeless in that city find it and call it home.
- Alex76, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2They need to bring the folks from the airstrip in "God of War" , they will make that plane vanish in one hour...
- ViPeRVeNoM, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2To me that dosent seem like a bad thing, the people should just gut the plane and turn it into some kind of shop, or home.
- BigSlacker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I saw that when it was sitting there. The picture is a bit misleading because the road curves there.
- BGPEREIRA, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2WTF! Everything gets stuck in India. There is a ship stuck in Goa; a plane stuck in Bombay. Nothing new. Now they got to grease the palms from the coolie to the neta to set up a pan-shop in there!!. Man... I love my heritage!!!
- framitz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Simply invite the public to take what they want from the plane, it will be completly removed within 24 hours.
- gulgulumaal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Unlike the US, plane is not a common mode of transport in India...it is still a novelty for the vast majority...atleast 90 percent (maybe more) of the folks wouldn't have seen a plane that close earlier....
Even otherwise...if u heard there is a plane parked on a public road somewhere in your city...wouldn't you want to take a look? - datastorageguy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4When I flew into Mumbai last year that's where we landed...what's the problem?
- LonesomeFighter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"The plane has become the centre of attraction with people coming from all over the city to take a look."
Have they never seen a plane before? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"sorry i was late for work today sir there was a 737 stuck in the road!"
"yeaaaaaah right!" - berryhill, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"The plane is causing problems for local businesses"
Oh yeah? Thanks, I would never have thought of that.. - onesidedsquare, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this article is worth a snicker, haha
- HappyScrappy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1We have overpasses and flyovers in the US.
A flyover is a left exit to left entrance (carpool lane to carpool lane) connecting ramp at a major interchange. - Salva, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1There is one abandoned plane in Portugal that is right at the door step to the main airport. It was turned into a strip bar! ;)
- Conwaysb0718, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1w0rd.
- 35chililights, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"is this not a reasonable place to park?"
- justhim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's understandable...they're too busy reading horrible technical support scripts and attempting to up-sell us on credit cards offers.
- shadowmist82, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1how can a plane just appear and disappear without anyone seeing it. you figure there be cops around keeping an eye on it.
- jc999, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1How many of you used Indian voices in your head when reading the commentary by the people from Bombay?
I know I did. Apu all the way!!! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0isn't there a big poverty level in India turn it into free/cheap housing as well as a tourist attraction
- alternotion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The pilot is still missing
