EXCERPT
The airliner rolled past the short approach taxiway. The radio crackled with unintelligible static and
broken words. The DC-10’s landing lights merely bounced off the thick fog. The pilot pointed the jet’s
nose down range.
The copilot rubbed his slick palms on his pants. This cannot be happening. The captain is ignoring me.
Air Traffic Control isn’t responding. For all we know there’s a flock of seagulls ready to fly right into the
engines.
“That static must have been the tower giving us clearance,” the pilot said. He waited another ten
seconds. “Screw it. We’re going.” He pushed the throttles forward and the DC-10 began its takeoff
roll. The jumbo jet rapidly accelerated. Thick fog swallowed it in seconds.
“Speed 125, V-1,” the nervous copilot called as the DC-10 hurtled over Lanai’s short runway.
The jet was now committed to its takeoff roll. He peered into the foggy gloom. “Pull up. Pull up!”
“Goddammit, goddammit,” the pilot shouted as he desperately yanked back on the control column
and slammed the throttles forward. The DC-10 rotated, its nose coming up off the runway. But it didn’t
yet have enough speed to get the lift needed to climb over the 747 crossing the runway. The plane’s
empennage scraped over the concrete, leaving a massive trail of sparks in its wake.
“Fly, baby, fly,” the pilot pleaded.
