Breaking: Jet Blue emergency landing, Long Beach, CA (UPDATE: Plane Landed Safely)
KABC Channel 7, live broadcast

Posted on 09/21/2005 4:21:43 PM PDT by kingu

A Jet Blue aircraft just did a low altitude flyby of Long Beach airport after reporting some concern with their forward gear. The television helicopter caught an image of it - the gear is turned sideways and tilted.

Aircraft is heading out towards the ocean to drop fuel, will turn around, and attempt a 'soft field' landing, keeping the nose up as long as possible.

Deputy Police Chief Dwayne T. Robinson is in charge, of course, until FBI agents Johnson and Johnson (no relation) show up.

Retired flight attendant here........praying and knowing what the crew and passengers are going through! I had an emergency, evacuated down the slides, and wouldn't want to do it again. But I do know that I feel safer in a plane than in an automobile.
