Stupider? You can see me too? Wow. Yes, I do work out. No, I don't go that way. I am married...


Bye Bye--General Lee

You see one Polish U-Boat Commander, you see 'em all.

 
You know, we have a saying in my country - "the coyote of the desert likes to eat the heart of the young and the blood drips down to his children for breakfast, lunch and dinner and only the ribs will be broken and this could be the beginning of the end for JetBlue."
Funny. Where I grew up we had a similar saying. When I was a small boy, my Father always used to say "You'll never be worth two craps from a crippled sow and now close the door I'm poopin', and it smells like the beginning of the end of JetBlue". I never really got what that meant until the last few years.
 
Ouch!!! I guess DTW320 might want to read those fleet bulletins a little more carefully.
Ouch! There wasn't one to read. And we didn't make the national news with it like JB apparently. The original comment was about gear stuck down. Didn't the JB 320 nosegear fail to retract? Don't remember, just asking. The NTSB reports are quite a bit different in description of the two.

The two events are pretty much the same thing, Jb's happened where there are always people listening to aviation/police scanners, have helicopters constantly in the air, etc (ala LA) and NWA's happened in Fargo.

I cant remember the exact ECAMs that JB's airplane got but I dont think an attempt was ever made to raise the gear bc of those ECAMs. JBs happened on T/O, whereas it sounds like NWA's happened upon extension. The same thing happened though--airplane landed with gear cocked 90 deg and everyone walked away ok.
