Navy removes fuel from spy plane that crashed into environmentally sensitive bay in Hawaii
CBSN
The U.S. Navy said Monday that it has removed nearly all of the fuel from a large surveillance plane that overshot a Hawaii runway and landed in an environmentally sensitive bay, but it doesn't have a timetable for when it will get the aircraft out of the water. The surveillance plane was flying in rainy weather when it landed one week earlier in Kaneohe Bay along the northeastern coast of the Hawaiian island of Oahu.
Rear Adm. Kevin Lenox said there was an estimated 2,000 gallons of fuel on board the P-8A Poseidon aircraft.
"The team extracted all the fuel that they could get out of those tanks. This process was completed successfully without any fuel being released into the bay," Lenox said at a news conference. Removing the fuel will reduce the risks for the rest of the salvage operation, he said.
