Since when can DC-9's dump fuel...

Good grief...

Why not just report that they have been flying around for 2+ hours BURNING fuel..
 
I'm watching Fox also. It's much better than the others
 
Way to go crew of flt 210!!!!You show the public that we are indeed trained professionals!!! Thank you! Cheers!
 
uneventful. looked like maybe a gear door prob....

Oh, that's real smart. Just start walking under the wing of a plane that landed with a gear problem....

idots!
 
Sparks from the wheel well? What the heck could that be? Wheels and tires look fine. Maybe a gear door got jammed somewhere.
 
Massport are not the smartest bunch - 2 years of putting up with that Northeast trash convinced me (BOS based).

"Pat on the Back" to the crew. This proves that we as pilots earn our low pay every day.

Mary Schiavo needs to STFU. The DC-9 series gear doors rub on the pavement after a manual extension. Also, the MSNBC dumbass, Tom Costello, just commented that the cold weather would factor into the Captain's decision to evacuate.

I'm going to drive an ice pick in my ears now.

you got that right.

Crew did well. They'll be pounding the beverages in a few.
 
Now they're using the "T" word, tarmac. I hate that word. I've never had any reason to say it. Just wait tilthe news idiots figure out the latest aviation cool phrase "flight deck". As in "ah folks, from up front here in the flight deck".

Good Job - Midwest!! These news channels were driving me crazy also.. That Mary Beeeeouch... was saying the Crew would be poping the slides since there was sparks by the landing gear and the Captain has a spark indicator in the cockpit.

Damm I have been flying faulty aircraft all my life... I want one of those spark indicators in the cockpit
 
At least CNN has Jim Tilmon on. Chicago weatherman that used to fly for AA. Nice to hear him tell it how it is and not give these journalist clowns (i.e Anderson Cooper, etc.) a chance to spew crap to the public who know no better.

At least Jim Tilmon isn't giving financial advice.

What runway did they land on? CNN has mentioned two different runways.

According to the idiot on CNN 27"L".

I'm starting to wonder how much of anything to believe in. After seeing how the news industry F's up something I know about I can only imagine how much of what we see and hear is BS. Next thing you know we'll find out that Miles O'brien doesn't know $hit. Oh wait we know that, maybe we'll find out that the rumors of the bird flu have really been started by some rouge chickens pissed off at the Chik Fil A cows in a twisted revenge plot to increase the consumption of red meat and save themselves from being served as a sandwich or a six piece.
