B-2452 747SP Air China
Number 2 engine hit by tractor
Anchorage, Alaska USA. A covered baggage tractor took off unattended from the domestic terminal and somehow cruised around the remote parking area and circled right up from the left rear along the 747SP’s (B-2452 c/n: 21934) fuselage striking the rear cone of Nbr 2 engine.
The lower part of the cone now sports the unmistakable form-kitting indentation of a covered tractor.
