CNN is covering it now. Crazy...couldnt even imagine what the people are thinking...I guess they moved every one to the back because the nose will be hitting the ground. They are probably circling to lose as much fuel as they can before they hit

i wonder how many lawsuits will come out of this one

LAFD says it will land in the next 10 minutes or so.

i dont get it ... if they are turned 90 they are still in the same position as normal just facing the opposite direction ... so the wheels will still turn ...wtf. its not like theyve rotated 45 deg.

That would be 180 degrees. 90 degrees is a quarter turn.

It landed. Big deal.

TonyMontana 09-21-2005 07:46 PM

IT MADE IT!!!!! Good stuff to the pilots for making the nose come down at the last moment to minimize damage

edit: yeah...try telling "big deal" to the passengers on board. rolleyes:
