Hi, first post here...
A vintage 1947 de Haviland jet crashed at KROC on Saturday, on return to the airport due to engine failure shortly after takeoff. He landed short of runway 4 with no fatality. Here's the clip (sorry for the WAV; my computer no longer makes mp3s). Call sign 78D (didn't catch the full tail number) is the one in trouble although there's a cryptic bit at the beginning with 2146G "if it needs to come back to the field..."
After the incident there is a brief full closure of the airport, although runway 7 reopens almost immediately.
I'll also post the full archive feed link, because I find it rather interesting:
http://archive-server.liveatc.net/kroc/KROC-Jun-06-2009-1900Z.mp3It seems like a hectic day all around, with lots more GA traffic (that's rw 7) than I'd have thought normal, general confusion on who's where, lots of flights requesting a return to the field (is that unusual?) and a spate of sticky mics.
Finally, at the very beginning of the archive feed there's a warning of an area of rocket launches about 10m in diameter. What's that about?
