- Not to worry..

They'll find some Independant Contractors on

a streetcorner somewhere & fix that ol' sombitch right up!


- Wonder if you get extra frequent flier points when your aircraft
lands in flames . . .

glad they all made it..

A big round of applause for that pilot. He nailed that landing and
kept the nose gear right on the line.

Yep,the Pilot did a great job bringing that Airplane in for a landing.I
wonder why they didn't foam the landing strip first though? He probally
had white knuckles there for a while.Yesterday,I saw a website in Canada
about an Airline called White Knuckle Air. www.devilfinder.com

I own two round aluminum "slide rule" Pilot flight calcularor/computer
thingys.One of them has the carrying case and instructions.I bought them
at a goodwill store years ago.

Foaming the runway would have only made it slick and harder to control
the plane. You foam the runway when a plane has to land with the gear up.

He sure did, right down the strip. That was excellent flying/landing.

Actually, he apologized for being six inches off centerline. :)

Can you imagine holding a shopping cart with a wobbly wheel one tenth of
an inch down a centerline in a store? Now compare that with with that
Pilot holding that Jet Blue Airplane sideways nose wheel anywhere near
that landing strip line.The Pilot did an excellent job of bringing that
Airplane in to a safe landing.

They call them an E6B.
