Awesome, can't wait for the new "band-aid" for this problem.

A united or Fedex pilot was probably on board and coached them down.

I'm glad they gave credit where it was due. Not DL, not AT, not UA. Thank you ABC WISN.

Although, this can't be good press for Bombardier.

Yeah okay....

Only ASA is allowed to have incidents that are like other miracles.

Stop calling these things miracles. A miracle can be considered something for which there is no reasonable, secular, and/or scientific explanation for why or how something happened. You getting laid by the chick in my Avatar would be a miracle... wait, bad example. She looks down for a good time.

seems the maint at skywest has gone way down over the yrs.company needs to take a proactive approach to maint. stop taken short cuts to make money. realize your fleet and your ppl make money.stop deferring things to get aircraft out on time. serouisly that bonus isnt that big of deal.

I never did hear what caused the collapse in ATL last year. I wonder if we went to a cheaper vendor with landing gear parts like we did with the temperature sensors a few years ago. Of course the FAA is going to be all over us and skywest now probably.
