JetBlue emergency landing (merged)

[2000flyer]

LAX just closed according to SOCAL. Didn't catch if it was the runway or entire airport. Next update from ATC 0130Z. However, looking at flight tracking...arrivals still continue.

 

[OneBadLT123]

i wonder if they are going to ask another private pilot on his expert advice on the situation like they did for the airfrance airbus accident

 

[cforst513]

man, they got a small army of emergency personel. good thing FEMA's not in charge of the emergency response!!!

 

[Redmeat]

THey just reported the nosewheel was bent "horizontal" because of a strong blast of hot gasses from HOWARD STERN"S AZZ... how do you like that?



......

Makes about as much sense as the moron reporters explanations. God I can't listen to these idiots!

 

[SiuDude]

The flight plan now says EDW for arrival airport.

Sure does. It just reappeared on my tracking program. I think they're about to pull the old switcheroo.

You'd think one of these news outlets would hook a scanner up to the audio so we could listen to the tower comms.

Robert Hager on MSNBC just stated it would be preferable to retract the landing gear and land on the belly of the a/c. Except because of the nosegear problem they are unable to retract the gear.

I see a jetblue taged jbu292 as a a319 south Lax 26 miles sse

Anyone got another link to live atC?

 

[cforst513]

firetrucks are deploying. could this be it?!

 

[cforst513]

what is the maximum speed that the airbus can fly with the gear extended?

 

[cjs]

Anyone know what caused the gear to get stuck? Did they discover the problem when the gear wouldn't retract after takeoff?

 

[Av8rPHX]

Apparently the ship is N536JB.
