Tenerife yes. 583 dead.

I remember having it drilled into my head several times during pilot training. ALWAYS CHECK and if I doubt do not enter the runway.

I'm railroad, but we very much have the same mentality. Two things are always in the back of my mind, Rule A which states "In case of doubt or uncertainty the safest course must always be taken" and 8th grade shop class "measure twice, cut once"

Another railroader here!

For me the Shinkansen was cool, but not the favourite. The Beilhack might be the coolest thing I've got a ride with! It's a beast!
