Yeah, we were all talking the same thing. I sure as heck wouldn't have
walked under the nose of that plane -- and I didn't see any jack.


The nose gear didn't collapse. If anything of this non-event is
surprizing, then it's the fact that the nose gear didn't collapse.

Can you imagine being on that plane? I'll bet everyone was standing up
immediately after stopping, clamoring to get off, pronto!


I'm sure you would have done so. However I guess the dumb passengers,
not being spam can rated, thought the captain knew what he was doing and
that it was best to follow his instructions.

Stranger still, how long did it take those fire trucks to appear in the
screen after the plane slid to a stop?


Yeah, I'm sure all those professional fire fighters had no clue. Maybe
Ed Fagan will find a passenger who will agree to sue them. I have no
idea for what, but you could help them to find a reason.
