That made me proud to watch. Who else felt that?

Maybe the public will see that pilots do deserve every cent!

Dumb question - can an A320 use diff. braking for steering?

 

[CrewResearch]

Truly remarkable -- three cheers for that crew -- and kudos to Airbus, too.

Yep...That crew did a great job

I hope those firefighters brought a case of beer for the pilots .. and some steaks to fry up on what's left of the soldering nose strut.

They deserve more than they get.

Don't recon those fellas will be buying beer anytime soon! Good job!

Ticket on Jet Blue: $250

New A320 nosegear assembly: $100,000

Having Fox News preempt Bill O'Riley interviewing Phil Donahue to show flawless landing: priceless

as did i, even tho i am a low time pilot, it still amazing to watch other aviators do such a great job in such a situation

Any plane with brakes can do differential steering.

I hope that nosewheel holds up a bit longer...

Well said, nice job guys! This is what a professional pilot(s) is about, knowing what to do in an emergency! Hope his wife got it on video!

You ready to go drinking hoss?

We'll go have a few for those guys.

Wow......someone was looking out for them.....they had maybe 700 or so feet of runway left. My a$$ is still tightened up watching from my chair.
