Back in 1995 I was flying into Charlotte. We were above the runway when I noticed a tanker truck pull underneath the left wing. We were about 100 feet above the truck before the pilot pulled up and circled around. The pilot got on the intercom and flipped out about the "a$$ hole tanker driver."

beck you should try flying into dust storms in Phoenix. Flew into one on the way home from Houston in July. People were freaking out from the turbulence and didn't even notice we were over downtown and about to land. Had to make the guy next to me stay in his seat because he was going to get out of his seat. A kid a couple aisles down ran into the bathroom and smacked his face into the door when we hit the run way.
