AA Emergency Landing?

[canadflyau]

As reported on the Denver news... "AA had an engine failure leaving DEN enroute to ORD and made an emergency landing in Omaha"... that is what the press said, anyone know what really happened?

P.S. No mention of any heroics or how the pilots did a good job, they just like to report on the bad stuff..

You mean the engine failed and they didn't die? How is that possible?

Please note the sarcasm

Hey KSU, how is Mr. Gross doing these days? I haven't seen him in awhile, not since my instrument checkride.

That maybe the worst news article I have ever read. It's like a team of monkeys researched it. Oh ya, it was the press (Same thing). Fly safe.

I think maybe the problem is that you were expecting RESEARCH! They know it all anyway... Just ask them... They'll tell ya!

"I'd rather land the plane and not have any problems . . . than crash into Lake Michigan,"

With witty intuition and wisdom like that, he is perfect pilot material. Thank you Captain Obvious.
