Governor Schwarznegger Tweets Emergency Landing
Governor Arnold Schwarznegger is an avid Twitter user. He reports what he is up to regularly including his meetings, visits, and even his thoughts on the Lakers championship. The Governor was recently involved in an emergency landing by his plane. Fortunately he made it out of there safely and tweeted what happened.
“A little adventure just now when my plane made an emergency landing. All’s ok, though,” reported the Governor. He sent out the above Twitpic too. Schwarznegger was making his way to the Santa Monica airport to give a speech about a drought happening in the state. The jet had landed at the Van Nuys airport when smoking started to erupt from the cockpit instrument panel. There were no signs of a fire, but the pilot made a quick and steep landing.
There have been several aviation incidents that were reported on Twitter in the last year. Amy Trachtman reported a low flying plane that was part of a government training exercise this past April. This past February Jonathan Nipp reported an accident in Amsterdam. And this past January Janis Krums reported the Hudson river incident.

Governator Approves Of The Hybrid Hummer Raser H3
California Governor Arnold Schwarznegger has been very critical of the Detroit-based automotive companies, but his opinion is beginning to change.
In September 2008, FORA.tv caught the Governor giving a speech discussing the Tesla opening a plant in California rather than New Mexico. Schwarznegger asked the audience think of how a company that never made a car before can make one that is completely electric and the car companies in Detroit couldn’t do it. “Arnold to Detroit: Get off your butt,” stated Schwarznegger in the video.
Yesterday Schwarznegger gave his thumbs up towards a 100 miles per gallon hybrid version of the Hummer yesterday when it was introduced in Detroit. The hybrid Hummer vehicle that was introduced at the Society of Automotive Engineers World Congress is called the Raser H3.
“There is nothing wrong with the Hummer; it’s great vehicle,” stated the Governor in an interview with The Detroit News. “We should change the technology within those vehicles.” Schwarznegger himself owns 12 vehicles.
General Motors worked with Raser to produce the vehicle even though the automotive company is considering dropping production on the Hummer line of automobiles. Schwarznegger will be one of the first ones to be given a Raser H3.
