I like the "eye" witness that heard a boom and 5 minutes later heard sirens while she was bartending

Yikes!

Slight tailwind for 31C, heavy snow possibly ice, very low vis and a short runway.

31C RVR mins is 4000. This is why rent around Skidway is cheap.

I enjoy this "expert" Jim from florida.

The plane should have had no problem landing on that runway.

Landing isn't the issue. Stopping is the issue.

Anyone else tired of hearing Anderson say "we have heard the jaws of life" goodness, i need to go to bed.

So is that Unlucky lottery or sucks to be you if you're in the car.

My guess is unlucky lottery. Stopped at a redlight probably honking at the car in front of you thinking of the pizza that you just picked up. Then WHACK a Herb Turd just hit you.

Oh no a flap indicator............ Hey anderson you're an idiot.

A correspondent stated they circled for three hours to burn off fuel.


(Not really, but I couldn't resist.)

Does anyone else find it amusing that Anderson Cooper keeps saying "we don't want to head down the road of speculation"??

Also, "the nose gear of a 737 is no match for a car." Hmmmm......

Anderson is a real tool. He needs to shut his worthless trap immediately.
