United Breaks More Than Guitars
« on: February 21, 2021, 11:43:03 PM »
Looks like United breaks more than guitars.

A United plane taking off from Denver rained engine parts on a suburban neighborhood today. Luckily no one was hurt. Plane returned to Denver airport.

This gives me the opportunity to gladly post the song,
"United Breaks Guitars" by the Sons of Maxwell:

Enjoy,

Don

A little long, but fascinating to watch.  As a "retired" private pilot with about 1400 hours, I get into these things, and never trust the media to report accurately.  This video seems to be well done, and came out very quickly.

Taylors:  424-LTD (all koa) and a 114ce that lives with friends in Alaska.  Low maintenance carbon fiber guitars are my "thing" these days, but I will always keep the koa 424.  Several ukulele and bass guitars too. 
*Gone but not forgotten:  a 2001 414ce, 410, 354-LTD twelve string, 314-N, 416-LTD baritone, T5 Classic, 615ce, 2006 GS-K, 1996 (first year) Baby
