In the late 1950s, a TWA SLockheed uper-Consteellation made an emergency landing at the small municipal airport in Columbia, Missouri. They blew out some of the tires trying to keep it on the runway. They couldn’t fly the aircraft out of this small airport, so they dismantled the aircraft wings and fuselage to truck it out.

Remember this one? Dead sticked a 737 onto a levee outside of NOLA.
