An Embraer carrying 53 people touched down long on a 5,810-foot runway in heavy rain at a Virginia airport, and a bed of crushable concrete blocks stopped it short of a highway embankment
8+ hour, 6+ min ago (838+ words) The rain was already heavy when the approach began. An Embraer 145 regional jet was inbound to Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport in Virginia, carrying 50 passengers and three crew. The aircraft was too high as it crossed the runway threshold. The first officer…...
Carpet recycling hit 38 percent in one state while the rest of the country stays near nine percent, and a fee charged on every square yard sold is what paid for the difference
12+ hour, 6+ min ago (655+ words) The installers roll the old carpet up and carry it out in strips. It weighs more than most people expect. Beneath the surface, three or four materials are fused so tightly together that almost no standard facility can pull them…...
Nebraska’s biggest reservoir ran out of public boat ramps on August 15, and the last one ended in a mud hole deep enough to let water into truck cabs
1+ day, 5+ hour ago (549+ words) Years of declining water levels finally caught up with the last public boat ramp at Lake McConaughy. August 15 marked the official closing of the last public launch site (Spillway Bay) within the Lake McConaughy State Recreation Area. The area has…...
Steel arch spans weighing 5 million pounds each rode the Hudson River for 30 hours apiece, and crews then jacked all three of them 60 feet straight up over the Hackensack
19+ hour, 6+ min ago (867+ words) Three tugboats sat in the dark water at the Port of Coeymans, lines taut, waiting for the tide. Behind them on a heavy barge rode something that weighed five million pounds and stretched 400 feet from end to end. It was…...
Full size trucks and SUVs given thicker oil instead of a new 6.2 liter V8 under a recall are still turning up with failed engine bearings, and federal regulators have logged hundreds of post repair complaints
1+ day, 8+ hour ago (749+ words) Two pieces of metal sliding against each other inside an engine are never supposed to touch. That is the whole trick of a bearing, and it is not achieved with hardness or with clever surfaces. It is achieved with a…...
A 248 mile winter road is rebuilt from scratch each year northeast of Yellowknife and 85 percent of it is lake ice, but the mine traffic it was built for has been falling away one closure at a time
3+ day, 16+ hour ago (809+ words) A plowed track runs across a frozen lake, straight to the horizon, with low rock islands on either side. There is no gravel under it and no culvert anywhere along it. Trucks come north on it for about two months,…...
The Great Lakes are entering the weeks when warm water can spin up tornado-shaped funnels beneath ordinary fall clouds, and some disappear again within 20 minutes
4+ day, 18+ hour ago (547+ words) The Great Lakes may not be known for Tornado Alley-style storms, but they still produce remarkable weather events. Few weather events are as disruptive as the lake-effect snow bands that develop during winter. Then in the summer months, these same…...
Three Yellowstone rivers spent almost all of August behind “no fishing” signs because water above 68°F can turn a released trout’s swim back into a fight it may not survive
5+ day ago (582+ words) During the summer of 2026, some of the best fishing for trout occurred on the rivers of Yellowstone National Park. However, due to warmer than usual water temperatures, many of these same rivers were off-limits to fishermen for several weeks. Yellowstone…...
Two shore cranes 302 feet tall were lashed to the deck of a 554 foot carrier bound from Germany to Thailand, but a Bay of Biscay storm put nearly all of both into the sea off Galicia
5+ day, 13+ hour ago (780+ words) A container crane is designed for one thing above all else. To stand on a quay, perfectly level, forever, with its whole weight pressing straight down through four legs into concrete. Every assumption in the steel follows from that. Then…...
A drone flew a pilot rope half a mile across a gorge near Yass and dropped 650 feet on the way, while the conductor that followed it weighed more than the aircraft could have lifted at all
5+ day, 22+ hour ago (798+ words) A transmission conductor is not a wire. It is a heavy cable, and across a span like this it weighs a couple of tons. No drone made is going to carry that. Which sounds like the end of the idea,…...
