NT ResQ Lifting Bags assist in recovering airplane Sandra Bullock during snowstorm! What do the New Technology Rescue Bags and Sandra Bullock (known from the movies Speed I and II, the Net) have in common? Well, that much that the NT Lifting Bags saved assist in recovering her plane because her private jet was blocking the runway. Fortunately, no one was injured.  The private plane of Sandra Bullock suddenly crashed just outside the runway near Wyoming while landing in a heavy snowstorm. The plane was blocking the runway, but couldn’t be removed. The Fire Department rushed into the crashscene and tried to lift the plane so the plane could be moved to another place. As there was only a very low insertion height the rescuers stabilized the plane with the Zumro New Technology Lifting Bags. These Lifting Bags are so flat; they just have to be slide underneath the plane to lift it up. After having achieved enough space the bags were left in place for stabilization while snow was removed to access sling points. The rescuers working on the airports have recovered many planes with this method of lifting only this time it became quite special when saving a celebrity’s plane!  |
