There's blocking lanes, and then there's blocking lanes:
A huge military transport plane was stuck on a runway above an interstate highway for more than 16 hours Thursday when it was unable to turn around after landing and had to wait to be towed.
Includes a most cool picture. I wonder if it beeps when it backs up?
Update: According to Daffodil it actually happened early last year.
i don't think you back a C-5 up. it would seem, well, just wrong...
on a related note, you should try to find pics of these things doing touch and goes on the runways. that's a damn freaky sight...
