Oklahoma Sen. Jim Inhofe escapes runway incident unharmed
epublican Sen. Jim Inhofe escaped without injury after running his plane off the runway during an emergency landing in Ketchum, Okla. The senator, 81, was flying with another pilot, each in separate planes, when severe storms forced the two pilots to make unplanned landings at the Ketchum airfield.

in 2011 he landed on a runway he knew was closed: he touched down, skipped over the equipment as the workers drove it out of the way, and re-landed ...
I remember that runway incident that Inhofe was involved in. I also note that he is an enthusiastic advocate for General Aviation and a member of Congress. It is too bad that he may not be the best pilot ever.
That's a bad ass dude!!!
That's a wildly irresponsible dude.
Airshow !!!
The good Senator Inhofe has had more than his fair share of "incidents" during his flying career. This latest one really illustrates that there comes a time for everyone to finally hang it up and move to a perpetual-passenger status, for his own good and that of others. Fate can be challenged only so many times.
Wow, what a bad day for Jimmy. First, those pesky thunderstorms pop up. Then a deer on the runway! Oh my!
