Blue Angels Hornet skidded of the runaway

Post by sashobest » Thu Dec 04, 2014 6:29 pm

An US NAVY F/A-18 Hornet aircraft belongs to Blue Angels aerobatic team skidded off the runway while landing at the former Brunswick Naval Air Station, this morning about 7:30a.m.

The pilot Capt. Jeff Kuss who is a Blue Angels Narrator and the other occupant Capt. Corrie Mays who is Event Coordinator assigned to the team, were unharmed.

I'd forgive the misspelling 'runaway' (sic) once, but on 5 occasions by a capable writer...
Is the term accurate though? - genuine question
