That's got to hurt yikes

Southwest Airlines jetliner hits and kills person as it lands at Austin airport

Air Traffic Transcript (safe).

I don't think I've ever heard of that happening before.

Hit by the nacelle rather than invested through the fan. The flight crew reported seeing a person on the runway. They would have known about someone going through the engine fan.

That is some dent.

Maybe all aeroplanes will need pedestrian protection systems from now on...

Probably saw the white lines across the runway and though it was a pedestrian crossing.

I'm amazed there is a flight between Dallas and Austin, as the crow flies it's only about 150 miles.

Yes, being able to get out of the way at 126MPH could have been of use here...

I suspect that being hit by a high speed jet aircraft would actually result in a Atlanto-occipital dislocation, so he probably wasn't even found wearing his own head.....
