This story harks back to the 300th APG show and was rewritten for the Plane Talking UK live show near Heathrow Airport.  It is the story of a crippled Airbus A300 that barely survives a missile attack and the excellent work by a phenomenal Flight Deck crew.

The DHL A300 that was struck.

 

The landing.

 

The damage done to the A300’s left wing.
