Dude! There’s an airplane headed right for you!

Above the A37 you can see a C7 Caribou that made a wheels-up landing. The photographer said the A37 pilot did not know about the Caribou. The Caribou did not hit the hard hangar.

The Caribou pilot said: “We took a round in the olio strut, left gear failed to come down, asked me to fly to Bien Hoa for a controlled crash landing, got the runway foamed using a fire truck, had near 0 fuel asked the firetruck to depart then landed and slid 300-400 ft, no major damage other then props, minor bottom skin...the one smart thing I did was had the FE (flight engineer) join the 2 CAS members, 1 Cambodian photo person and a Army Cpt who was hitching a ride to sit at the back of the aircraft...when #2 prop hit the runway a large chunk came thru the side which would have killed or injured the FE... Callsign was Iris Jr./536TAS”

As the photographer said: “Just another day at Bien Hoa.”
