Being sarcastic doesn't help your case. Not understanding what PIC
means in an emergency doesn't help your case, either.

I read on another post that the plane was 81 miles out, if
so, then ATC had the time. But what are the facts, where
was the plane, when was an emergency declared, when was the
runway requested?


When all else fails, listen to the tape.
