A gulfstream jet carrying Nike executives has a landing gear problem and is
trying to burn fuel to land at Hillsboro, Oregon airport. On CNN.


What is the motive behind CNN's coverage of aviation incidents?

It's almost like they are deliberately trying to give aviation a black eye
at every possible opportunity.


CNN wasn't the only one showing this one! Fox, MSNBC, CBS -- all had it
on. I guess the pilot gave it -1G, followed quickly by +3G to dislodge
the gear. The RH main appeared to be jammed against the inner gear door.

I'm glad they were able to get it down and locked.
