WE HAD AN INCIDENT HERE AT LITTLE ROCK NATIONAL AIRPORT WERE AN AIRPORT WORKER,WITH MANY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN BEING AROUND AIRPLANE ENGINES AND UNDERSTANDING AIRPLANE PRE-FLIGHT PROCEDURES,WALKED RIGHT INTO THE PROPELLOR OF A PLANE PREPARING FOR DEPARTURE.I DON'T KNOW ALL OF THE DETAILS,BUT IT SEEMS,FROM WHAT I REMEMBER THAT THE REASON HE ENDED UP WALKING INTO THAT PROPELLOR WAS BECAUSE HE KNEW FROM EXPERIENCE THAT THAT PARTICULAR ENGINE WAS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE IDLING IN A PRE-FLIGHT SITUATION,SO,HE INSTINCTIVLY{WITH HIS HEADPHONES ON,APPARANTLY)AND EYES DIVERTED FROM THE PROPELLORS,OBVIOUSLY,WALKED INTO A NIGHTMARE.
