This is a true CVR recording which took place in the cockpit of a Continental jet...


Mechanic #1:  "Hey Bob I really don't think were supposed to be up here."  

Mechanic #2:  "Tony, your such a worry wart. Anyhow, we're suppose to be up here remember,  were cleaning this bird."  

Mechanic #1:  "Are your sure? I thought they told us to stay out of the cockpit"  

Mechanic #2:  ""Hey look at me I'm a pilot!!!...(Deep Voice) Ladies and Gentlemen this is your captain speaking were at an altitude of 30,000 feet and Oh my God watch out for that mountain.........Ahhhhhhhh (laughter).

Mechanic #1: Hey man cut it out....Hey don't touch that it says "engine start" on it...  

Mechanic #2: Don't worry....they always turn these things off while their at the gate. (Engine sounds in background....mechanics unaware)  

Mechanic #2:  Ready for takeoff......VRRRRRROOOOM VRRRRROOOOM (Throttles rapidly moved from idle to full and back to idle and full again) WEEEEEEEE!  

Mechanic #1: OH no were moving!!!  

Mechanic #2:  WERE GOING TO HIT THE WALL RUN (Cockpit door opens and slams shut.  Occupants heard running to back of the airplane screaming and yelling)  

30 seconds later...... Throttles pulled back to idle.

Six airport cleaners were reported slightly injured when a Continental Airlines passenger jet crashed through the wall and glass windows of a terminal in a freak accident at Newark International Airport early today.

No crew or passengers were on board the parked MD-80 aircraft when it suddenly moved forward while mechanics were attempting routine overnight engine inspection, Continental Airlines spokeswoman Sarah Anthony said.

"One of the engines fired up and the aircraft surged forward, hitting the terminal," the spokeswoman said. "We don't know the extent of the damage at this point... the aircraft was lodged in the building."

The aircraft was parked at Terminal C when "for an undetermined reason the plane lurched forward and crashed through the wall at gate 114," said airport spokesman Steve Coleman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

National Transportation Safety Board officials were investigating the accident, Coleman said.
