Well I had a front row seat to this. I had just put my piper on the ground
at Long Beach airport when this guy called tower and asked for an emergency approach. After that he asked the tower if he could make a special request. They granted him the request and allowed him to make a low approach so they could inspect the gear from the tower. Ill tell ya, that was an odd sight. I have seen tons of small aircrafts do low approaches, but I haven't ever seen an airliner do one. Long story short, the tower told all of the helicopters to "Go Away" as he was diverting the pilot to LAX. -- John Huthmaker "Bucky" wrote in message ups.com... Do you think they have DIRECTV on flight 292? It was pretty ironic to be watching your own plane on CNN.
