Re: Jet Blue Emergency landing on Fox News LIVE no

The best sound bite from this incident came from a former US Navy pilot who just retired from a career of flying commercial jets, "If it ain't a Boeing, I ain't going." (The plane here was, of course an Airbus). [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I get tired of the Media scaring people.

They did an interview with children about Kidnapping and all these kids were scared of it saying the danger is so bad getting worse. Guess what the #'s of Kidnappings are actually down. The Media will do anything to sell iself and it is making a generation of paranoid people. Just stick to the cold hard facts instead of looking to exploit evey disaster. Thanks the media and realiy TV. No really thank you like there isn't enough tragedy in our personal lifes.

So instead of the report being "A Pilot did a fantastic job today when a malfunction occured which he was trained for"

It is look live people might Die!!! Screwed up values as far as I am concerned.

Just saw the landing on the news. I thought the gear wasn't dowm all the way when I heard about it on the radio. But it was fully extended. I heard that the wheels will freewheel when they taxi. It looks like the lock that fixes the wheels straight did not lock.3 points and out. Nicely done, however. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
