JetBlue emergency landing (merged)

[cjs]

you fly it around and get the fuel where you want - or just land it heavy.

WHATS the big deal with the fuel dump folks? .

Christ, is that a joke? "you fly it around and get the fuel where you want" .. sure, assuming the plane remains sufficiently airworthy to burn fuel for a few hours. You gotta be kidding dude.

i wonder if their management just offered them a 1.2% raise

OK...most disturbing thing I can see...picture perfect landing then.....

jetblue(?) / gung-ho emergency fools are all gathering UNDERNEATH the Airbus with the busted nose gear.

WTF folks?

My thoughts exactly.

What a great landing. I wish my NORMAL landings looked so good.

CNN reports the FO was caught on 121.5 crying for his mommy to make it all stop.
He said, i never wanted to fly the big pwayne but you made me!!! Bet he wishes he hadn't been a polygamist now!!!

Also, French TV is reporting that if they had only bought AMERICAN products, this would never have happened.

AMAZING!

Guess there will be a loss at JBLU now for SURE.

God Speed yall.

Texas SUCKS. Go back, and stay there. The rest of the country will thank you.

They sure used a heck of a lot of runway, but wow! Those are some truly skilled pilots.

by the way


appologies if someone already asked but i dont have time to croll through 155 posts


what can cause the nose gear to turn 90 degrees like that ??

Very strange, not seconds after the landing AOPA air safety called looking for money. Normally I wouldnt give money, but the timing was just to freaky so I gave $25.

Maybe if the SkyWest nose up landing at LAX a couple months ago was televised...
