Biography

Major Chuck Beasley, a TX ANG pilot with the 182nd Fighter-Interceptor Squadron played an important role in an emergency landing of a crippled commercial jetliner with 98 passengers. The jet had blown a tire when taking off from San Francisco and headed for Kellly AFB’s long 12,000-foot runway.

Beasley flew his F-102 beneath the transport to make a visual determination that a wheels-up landing could be attempted.
